MOTU 828 MK1 + 828 MK2 - daisy-chain and S/PDIF clock sync

[FlavioB]

Hi everybody.
I got following interfaces, which I'd like to use at the same time to record from:
MOTU 828 MK1 FW
MOTU 828 MK2 FW

Now, I'm on OS X Yosemite, with the latest MOTU Audio drivers (installed 2 days ago) and MOTU CueMix FX software as well.

The problem is, that I cannot get all 16 channels to appear in my system. I do however get each 828 to work correctly if connected individually.
I connected the devices as follows:

FireWire:
MacBook <--> MK2 <--> MK1

S/PDIF:
MK2 <--> MK1

When I open the MOTU Audio Setup software, I only see MK2... same goes for CueMix FX.

Ah, when I connected MK1 individually, I set it to get the clock from S/PDIF. On the MK2 I set the clock to be "internal".

Any help here will be very much appreciated!

Thanks in advance and regards,
Flavio.

I'm pretty sure the MKI doesn't work with cue mix. I would recommend you connect it to the MKII via ADAT.

You're pretty right:

Damn... gotta get rid of the MK1 because on the MK2 I already got an ADA8000 via ADAT.

Thanks for your reply!
