Multicard Operation
OS X supports more than one audio device. Their simultaneous usage within one program had
been limited to Motu's Digital Performer until 10.3.9. Since 10.4 (Tiger) Core Audio offers the
function
Aggregate Devices , which allows to combine several devices into one, so that a
multi-device operation is now possible with any software.
The Hammerfall DSP driver adds a number to each unit, so they are fully accessible in any
multicard-capable software.
