I have the DM3200 Tascam mixer (same thing just a tad smaller) and I use DP 5.11. I assume you mean that that the Iffwdm will not "lock".

Based on what Tascam says I would see what you have on firewire already. I use a MacPro so the firewire port on the back runs the Tascam 32 in and 32 out and the firewire on the front (which is a seperate buss) runs two RME Firefaces. No problems. I have not tried using the Tascam into the fireface in series so to speak. the Tascam is the center. Converters are very good as are the MicPres. If you have specific questions email me and I'll try to help.
