Correct! however, the mic pre seems really cool and something anyone can use, however would you have to connect all the outputs to a mixer, or could you bus a left and right from all the available outputs?
Tiger has aggregated devices ability, but I have searched and searched and no one who's posted around the internet seems to have done this themselves so they could run say, 96k on it - on multiple and have success... so I'm not sure if it would work on not - despite what Apple says. I'll just be glad when I buy a Powermac and the high-pitched whine I have with it will cease. Since it was a problem with the computer processor, I'm sure the switch to Intel will change it significantly.

would be cool if they made one for the firebox, or mixed firebox/firepod groupings - then it would be a truly modular system, and i would know that if i needed more inputs at any time, i just buy another 'fire-thing' that adds either 4 or 8 analog ins depending on what i end up needing, especially with the firebox being now only $299!
(on that note i could grumble that i paid $100 more than i could have, but hey, i got some good use out of mine this summer. And it served me well in my performance tonight!!)

Yes, but what kind of CPU overhead does using aggregated devices in tiger create? is syncing the interfaces' clocks a substantial drain on the processor? just curious. I guy i know apparently got a bunch of iMics running with it for 8 channel lo-fi stuff, but i dont know the intensity of the processing he was doing in realtime.
