Apple Logic Pro /LogicExpress Discussion

Any systems out there running dual sound cards w/ win Logic 5.1?  
I'm considering new audio routing techniques and was wondering if I 
could avoid some pitfalls.  AMD3000, audiophile 2496, wave in and 
out, 512Mb RAM, K6 mainboard with onboard 5.1 surround.

Hello :
I used to have and Aark20(asio) and an AW8(aw8)on a PIII 500 with 
256mb and it worked with Logic 4.8. The problem is when you want to 
go back to  a single card... 
I don´t like consumer audio cards because you´ll have lots of delay 
between cards , but you can try...

good luck

Great!  I've been digging around net forums a little today and 
though it seems very unlikely that people get two soumd cards 
running they don't do it often and it's a tricky operation when they 
do.  I don't know what kind of problems you experianced trying to go 
back to one, but I'd like to hear about it.  I think it's a matter 
of windows wanting to use one or the other sound card as default for 
certain programs, but there also seems to be an accessing hardware 
problem as in any given program won't access or route to different 
hardware out.  I have, however had sucess midichaining stand alone 
software to host secuencers and routing audio out through both 
simultaneously.  Also, I've been reading that M Audio gear can 
handle multiple cards of the same brand.

I have a friend with an audiofile soundcard and it's delay feels like 
a minute when running a controller through it
