Terratec EWS 88 MT / Phase 88 / TS 88 Multicard setup

Post by singforme »

H everyone!
My current audio interface is a Terratec EWS 88 Mt . I bought a Terrasonic TS 88 which is the same as the Terratec Phase 88 PCI with breakout box. It's possible to cascade those cards in windows and I assume this should work in Linux, too. Has anyone been successfull at running more than one EWS cards on Linux? That would be great because it would add me 8 more great sounding analogue input channels for 34 euros :)

Wow, actually it's pretty easy!

It seems to work just fine following this excellent Guide by Gmaq even though these are not Delta 1010lt card. Thanks for this!

I tried to sync the cards by using a sync jumper cable. That doesn't work though, it only works by using the SP-DIF Method that Gmaq describes.

I find this pretty impressive as these audio cards can by bought for around 30-40 Euros / Dollars used. Some of them also feature great MIC-Preamps / ADAT connectivity...
