Topic: Two cards on same mobo?

Has anyone had success running two PCI-e cards simultaneously? I've got two AES cards and they work killer most of the time. Periodically one stops outputting signal and I have to change the latency to something else and back to what I was running at to get it to come back, which doesn't work all the time.

Thanks

Re: Two cards on same mobo?

I had this phenomenon happening to me with 2 or 3 HSDPe cards in one system. The lastest Driver update to 3.35 solved this issue for me.

Thank you for this info. I'll be able to confirm in the next couple of days.

Re: Two cards on same mobo?

After several days of almost trouble free mixing, it appears that the update solved this issue. I love my DAW again! Between the two AES cards and Reaper, I'm able to do pretty much any routing that I want and its solid, most of the time.

The only glitch I've had is that once, when I told Reaper to record live playback, the second AES card seemed to freeze up, but that was only once and changing the buffer length fixed it.

Anyway, love these cards and I'm very happy with the performance.

Thank you for the advice.
