"I think" my little dual opteron 185 is gonna have plenty of horsepower =
to track 20 inputs simultaneously at 3ms latency. Any further tracking =
would be dubbing maybe 1 or two tracks while playing back the =
prerecorded tracks. this also looks pretty simple if I'm not using a =
heavy load of UAD-1 plugins. If I were to use them, I can disable them =
all for dubs in the UA control panel.=20

I'll tell you what........if I can get this CR function going and it's =
working nicely, and if you can find the mobo I use, this will be a very =
powerful, UAD-1/Powercore w/ Magma DSP friendly and economic DAW to =
build for a native system. I'm slamming the PCI bus with 9 devices ( 4 x =
UAD-1's, 2 POCO's and 3 RME HDSP cards) during mixdown cramming enough =
bandwidth through the bus to choke an elephant and the NForce chipset =
just shrugs it off. I can playback 40 tracks with a 90% UAD-1 DSP usage, =
a 90% POCO usage on two cards and a respectable number of native plugins =
at 1024 buffers when I'm mixing with no dropouts.=20

I'm digging this DAW. I just didn't think it had the capabilities to =
really function efficiently with Cubase Control Room and never really =
tried it because I had a monster cue system in place before Cubase 4 =
came out.=20

I may have have misunderestimated the capabilities of this system. I =
don't quite have my head around the CR function yet though. For some =
reason, I'm not hearing the input signal in the cans, though the click =
is working.=20

Crap!!! I guess I'm actually gonna have to RTFM

If I can satisfy myself that this will work reliably, I'll post up my =
specs in detail here in case someone wants to build a relatively =
inexpensive native DAW with lots of potential.

;)
