Well, I tried it, and the results were not pretty. This was done by connecting two same-make Presonus Firestudio Projects. The Firecontrol application did show both units, but only allowed control over the master. And Sonar allowed me to select any of the 20 inputs and outputs, which at first, I thought was great! However, upon playback, it became very unstable. No dropouts, but very distorted, motoboating sound. Not on every project, but on about 1/2 that I opened. This was done in WDM mode. ASIO just didn't work at all.
The next task is how to set up monitoring.
Also, Frank was right about the monitoring challenge. While I could record the input from the second device, there was no output through the main monitors from the first obviously, because I did not have them digitally connected.
I will try daisy-chaining method with ASIO as presonus suggests.
By the way, of you forum members, what is the most amount of simultaneous discrete channels have you have recorded, and what kind of audio interface(s) did you use to accomplish that? I'm trying to gain more simultaneous channels for full band live recordings - all I have really is 8 channels now with the presonus fs project.
thanks, guys.
