Is it possible to use the Fireface800 on a mac with multiple apps at the same time?

I'm not sure, at least it doesn't work with Logic and Pro Tools on a Mac Pro OS 10.6.6

I don't make a habit of trying to run Pro Tools and Logic at the same time but it does work, for me. I'm not sure if what I'm referring to fits your prerequisites of "multi-client" interoperability but I can definitely configure individual I/O and playback audio fine with both DAW at once. I've tried this with Logic Pro 9.1.3, Pro Tools 9.0.1 and Live 8.2.1 (not as ReWire slave). Playing iTunes with a DAW open works fine too. Fine if sample rates are the same anyway. This is using a Mac Pro with OSX 10.6.6 also.

Hi Treefingers, you're absolutely right, forgot that I also use iTunes and Logic at the same time. So the trouble I'm having may be caused by PT9. I'm not sure too, if I want to use Logic and PT at the same time on the same machine, just trying to find a stable setup.
