I'm helping a couple of friends with their home studio.
One XP box running Cubase with a Firepod. Just built them a second XP box to run Reason and some efx.
The firepod also has s/pdif. If I install a soundcard like the Emu 0404 and connect them both with s/pdif, will that connection not only pass audio but also keep Reason in sync with Cubase?
This is the first time I've tried to tie two boxes together. The main idea is to share the cpu load between two resource-intensive apps.
Thanks.

It will keep their *sound cards* in sync so they won't get clicks and pops. If you're looking for positional sync or transport sync you'll need something else besides. Pity ReWire doesn't work over LAN, that'd be a cool solution. I'll mull on it.
