Cool. Please let us know how it works.
Ok, so far so good. I got my EMI two days ago, and although I haven't put
it through an extensive benchmark, here are some preliminary results:
- driverversion (or rather, kernel extension version) is 1.2.0;
- machine is old-rev tiBook (500Mhz G4, 768Mb memory) running OSX 10.1.4;
- Ableton Live (v1.5) at first only found 2 output channels instead of 6,
and no input channels, but miraculously it now finds everything;
- with 48kHz output samplerate, I can get a latency of about 4ms without
noticable distortion on a not-too-heavy Live! sequence (8 tracks, about 6
plugins running); CPU usage according to Live! was about 20%, according
to top, CPU is spending about 20% in system (probably the driver doing
its work);
- Spark ME finds 6 output channels, but no input channels :(
- using System Preferences to set the default output device to the EMI
works; however, no way of selecting output channels (defaults to 1+2);
- I haven't (yet) tested input, or digital I/O;
All in all, apart from some quirks w.r.t. the detection of channels, I'm
very pleased with it already :)
