Using Multiple FireStudio- Family
Interfaces
The Universal Control allows you to connect up
to four FireStudio Mobiles 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
three 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.
On the following page is a diagram showing the
possible device combinations that you can use
with your FireStudio Mobile and the resulting input
and output count.
