How do I get the 442 inputs/outputs active so I can record? And don't laugh, I know this is probably simple for the Paris intelligentsia. Thanks, KentYou cannot patch across EDS cards without physically routing analog connections between them. Do you have the ribbon cables connected between the two EDS cards?

Added in 7.1: "Full Native Plug-In Delay Compensation Take advantage of full plug-in delay compensation which now corrects for latency produced on bus, auxiliary, and output channels in addition to every other path in the native audio mixer. You'll especially appreciate this enhancement if you own third party DSP cards like those developed by Universal Audio and TC Electronics." (From http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301426) I agree that Logic 5.x had limitations but they've been steadily addressing them.
