Actually I'm pretty sure I recall that it should be fine. You just connect the four EDS cards as in the manual and then connect the MEC to Card A.

Yep....you can do up to 8 EDS cards and have only one MEC. Then in each Submix on the Master Fader you can choose which card is the Master if you want to actually record into that submix instead of moving tracks around.

My experience with this is that you need to have at least half as many interfaces as you have EDS cards. If you have 8 cards, you'd need interfaces on cards 1, 3, 5, and 7, with a word clock generator.

Having only one interface may work, but there are synchronization errors that lead to time-outs in the PSCL. This causes the PARIS app to become unresponsive for a second or so sometimes, and submixes will just not play sometimes.

With 4 cards, I'd have an MEC on card one, and a 442 on card 3 with a word clock generator. The Hosa one works great, and it's cheap.

I hope this helps.

Mike

I'm having the same issue. I just built a Windows 7 computer waiting the arrival of this weekend's Windows 7 driver(thx Mike). My goal is to have two C16s controlling 32 tracks at a time without going to submix. Is this possible? I have some newly purchased 2 more MECs, 2x8in cards (so with what I have now that would make 3x8in cards), 1x8 out card, ADAT card, several 442s, and a PCI expansion chasis with 8 eds cards in it. I know I don't need all of this but in came in one lot. Any ideas how I can complete the goal? Just looking to record 32 tracks at a time with the capability of mixing 32 tracks without having to submix etc....
Thank you
Ron

You'll need 2 EDS cards to run 2 C-16s and 32 tracks without a submix. This is my set up with 1 MEC. I slave (hook up the EDS cables) per the manual.

Each EDS card can run 1 C16 and a 16 channel submix.

I only have 1 MEC with 2-8ins so I only record 16 at a time, but I mix via 2 EDS cards and 2 C16s up to 32 tracks.
