I've never tried it, just asking if it's possible.
I have a Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 and an MAudio Fastrack Ultra 8R, each with 8 channel (audio input) capability. There are times I could use more than 8 channels at a time during recording. Is there a way to use both at the same time? Looking at the audio setup, it looks like only one unit at a time can be selected, both in X1 and 8.5.3.
