I learned tonight that I have fried two new Mecs again.
The EDS cards are all good. I hopefully can
fix the mecs for resale with the chips I've bought.

I have what is probably a messed up Magma. Maybe fixed
now that there's a new PS but I'm not sure and don't care
anymore. It will be at least $300 to ship/repair.
I have possibly a messed up mobo or power supply=20
in my Paris computer also. It works fine without eds cards
installed though. Not sure about this just yet.

The eds cards work fine with another Mec and 442 in another
computer.

My plan is to keep a two card system with 16 in and 16 out with an
ADAT card in one MEC. I am there now. Can you say summing bus?

I also need to up the analog ins in my Cubase rig to get it ready for
prime time. I wanted the Aurora but that is looking like $4,000=20
after all is said and done. I guess that the Apogee is also at least
that much. Those are only 16 in/out. Not quite enough for my basics
sessions sometimes. Both are too much me to shell out and my heart=20
isn't in it for that much scratch. =20

Heres my Cubase rig as is:

-Cubase 2.01 (4.0 sitting in the box)
-AMD 2.4 dually (4.8)
-3 GB Ram (haven't ran the patch yet) Anyone got that with =
instructions?
-7200 IDE C:
-7200 SATA Audio 16MB Cache 500GB
-7200 SATA Sample sets 16MB cache 500GB
-PCIe dual head graphics
-1 PCI UAD-1 card=20
-1x PCI Scope Pro Classic with 16 adat in/out, MIDI, 1 SPDIF in/out, 2 =
analog in/out
- Frontier Tranzport USB
-Wireless Mouse keyboard USB
- Cubase dongle USB
-backup audio drive USB
-1 PCIe slot available
-1 PCI slots available
( Delta 66 not installed 4 analog in/out 1spdif in/out))

Here's what I need:
24 x A to D - D to A in/out. 96k at least probably PCIe compatible.
Thinking of the future here.

Features wise I like the Motu at $1400 or less
http://www.motu.com/products/pciaudio/24IO/body.html

Already owning a Scope card leads me to this but not enough ins
and I think I will need a Z link attached to my card. $1150 with Z link.

Are there any other contenders? I'm not finding anything.

Thanks for your insite and all the previous help.
Tom
