I've recently bought a pair of RME FF800s for use in a new rehearsal facility. They're hooked up to a Mackie 24-8 mixer's direct outs, giving us 16 channels of input.
Unfortunately they only came with FW400 cables so I've been unable to cascade them so far, but I'm just wondering if, once they're cascaded, channels recorded from the second interface (inputs 9-16) will be routable to Outputs 1&2 on the first. I guess I'm asking if the two interfaces will appear as one combined unit within Audio / Midi set-up and the DAW (primarily Logic) . Anybody got any clue about this? The RME website is both ugly and lacking in info. -------------------- www.myspace.com/commercialmusicstudios

Yeah, easily found, but I found it pretty surprising that the Fireface *800* at £600 + change only comes with a firewire 400 cable, especially when you have only 1 fw400 port on the device and so can't connect multiple units. It would only cost them a dozen euros or so.
Thanks for the reply LPM. I'll let you know how I get on, and maybe even post a couple of pics once the room is up and running.
