Despite of this encouraging advice from the tech support from M-Audio and after considering downgrading the workstation to Win2K/XP, our new soundcard is up and running. M-Audio Audiphile Delta 2496 is now capturing audio and interfacing MIDI at the Chain Reaktor Lab. Thanx Uli [from Euphorbia] for providing the support the manufacturer couldn't provide.

New hardware has been added to the Chain Reaktor Studios [BR].

-A Pentium 4HT 3.0 GHz [250GB HD SATA - 1GB DDR RAM - Asus P5GPL Motherboard] is the new core of the computer based studio.
-A Behringer Eurorack UB802 is the new mixing desk.
-A M-Audio Audiophile 2496 is expected for the next few weeks, as soon as the dealer have it avaliable.
-The vintage Yamaha DX-7II-D, Roland JD-800 and Roland JX-305 are still the main hardware synths.

These circuits will most certainly melt in a couple of weeks, as intense recording/mixing/mastering work is taking place at the Studio. A new album is scheduled for release early in 2006  and there's much work ahead!!
