Four or more AudioFuse 16 as interface on mac

Hi at all here, i’m new here.

I working on an old mac pro 5.1, Logic Pro, Motu pci424 with 4x 24i/o.
I think to replace the audio i/o. Reason: new Apple mini M4 pro (?) for more power and current mac os. But in this way i can “trash” Motu.

Is it possible to connect 4 or more AudioFuse 16 to an Mac Mini M4, to use it as an large audiointerface? It means to build Core-Audio for using all the i/o. Maybe it must work on a usb-hub.

Any experince or advices in this case?

Thank you a lot!

Hi,

Sorry for the very late reply!

Did you find the answers to your question?

For general information, you can use multiple audio interfaces together as long as you designate one as the master clock and synchronize the others to it.

Bests,

As a home producer one of the absolute joys of MacOS that Windows cannot natively emulate is the ability map multiple physical audio interfaces into one virtual audio-interface to which you can map all the physical-devices’ inputs and outputs to their own individual channels, and all the interfaces will stay synced. So for the benefit of anyone wondering what the answer is, it’s yes. On Windows though I couldn’t tell you. There’s probably an app you can buy that does it.

Correct, MacOS has a built-in “aggregate device” feature.

On Windows, ASIO4ALL (free) offers an “aggregate device” feature.
There are other “donationware” options as well
