Ok people....here goes......I am running a HP Pavillion in 64bit with Windows 7 and ProTools LE8.........recently have aquired a pair of 002Rack interfaces, have not connected them yet, still need to get the correct firewire card..........wanting to know if anyone else is running a pair of 002's and what connectivity problems they have had or not had.

stainless:
I'd head over to the Avid (ProTools) DUC forum  and ask there... also do a search first so you don't get flamed (there's a few jerky boyz  that seem relish jump on folks who haven't done due diligence) . I owned a 002 and used a Digimax via lightipipe... but really don't know how you'd use 2 002's together (seems one would need to be designated "master" and the other "slave" (clocking may be as simple as designating one internal and the other external)

RazorLand Studio:
Thanks bro....I will go post it on the AVID site and see if anything comes back from that :)

stainless:
a quick search fornd this... and it's not ebcouraging  http://duc.avid.com/archive/index.php/t-132719.html

maybe something has changed (I had 8.0 LE and don't remember anything in I/O or hardware set-up that show a 2nd 002 as an option (but then i never really looked)

I'm guessing you can sell one of the 002's for enough to buy a DigiMax or maybe ab D8... but they have internal pre's, so you're limited to 4 dirtect inputs on the 002 and the SPDIF (which will give you 2 more from a external pre with a digital DPDIF out)

Let us kknow what you come up with- my 002R is over at the bass player's house (keeps him entertained)

RazorLand Studio:
Ok.so it looks like I might be able to slave the first 002 into the second using the optical out from #1 into the optical in on #2 then firewire the second unit into the puter. The first unit will be seen as ADAT i/o...........hmmmmm think i need to at least give that a shot, already have both 002rack units, looks like all i need to get is an optical cable to give i a shot...... thanks again bro..............
