Title: RME Fireface 400 or MOTU Ultralite AVB - ASIO input and output at the same time?
Post by: jdubs on November 10, 2015, 06:16:25 pm

OK, so I've searched here and am am unsure, definitively, if the Fireface 400 can access its ASIO inputs AND outputs simultaneously in JRiver.  Similarly, I'm unsure on the MOTU Ultralite AVB

I can with my TC Impact Twin and it works awesome - just curious if the two above interfaces can do the same as I'm thinking about buying one or the other (maybe).

I have a FF800 (so the same driver) and I find I have to use the asio multiclient on one side. It does work though. I find I can't use a long fir filter in this case though I don't think that issue is specific to this device.

Thanks mattkhan.  When you say you "use the asio multiclient on one side" are you referring to the generic steinberg multi-client ASIO driver?  Ughh.  That's annoying if so.

yes. There's no actual impact to doing that though that I've noticed, you just pick a different device in one app.

Yes, the MOTU UltraLite AVB is fully multi-client and you can use the input and output simultaneously in JRiver. Best drivers and mixer I've ever used.
