Re: Anyone running both Mobius and Reaktor as Standalone?

["Krispen Hartung" <khartung@cableone.net>]

Arggggg...this is what I was afraid of.  For a concept so simple, we'd 
think 
the differnet software companies would make it easier for us. I just need 
to 
go from my soundcard input to Reaktor, from Reaktor's output to Mobius 
input, and from Mobius output to my sound card's output. Easier said than 
done.  So I guess programs like Re-Wire sort of fake a sound card's IO, so 
that you can route to and from it, and then to other apps?

I guess I need to buy a more sophisted audio interface (like one of the 
m-audio firewire units) that has multiple inputs/outputs, many virtual 
input/outputs, etc.
