Cascading Units; Using Multiple Firestudio-Family Interfaces - PRESONUS FIRESTUDIO PROJECT - V2.0 User Manual

CASCADING UNITS

4.1 USING MULTIPLE FIRESTUDIO FAMILY INTERFACES
Universal Control allows you to connect up to four FireStudio Projects or to connect any member of the
FireStudio family of interfaces with any other. Once you have installed the Universal Control and FireStudio-
family driver on your computer, no further installation is required for any FireStudio product to connect to your
system.
PreSonus supports the connection of up to four devices or a limit of 52 inputs and outputs (whichever comes
first) to any one system at a time. However, the ability to use more than two units simultaneously depends on
your computer's specifications and optimization. If you plan to use 3 or more units at the same time, installation
of a dedicated FireWire bus with a tested and approved FireWire chipset and at least 2 GB of RAM is highly
recommended. A list of approved chipsets can be found in Section 5.1 of this manual. Updated lists are available
at www.presonus.com.
Below is a diagram showing the possible device combinations that you can use with your FireStudio Project and
the resulting input and output count.
