PC or MAC?
For PC download ASIO4ALL & install it. (read the pdf first!)
For MAC you have also a similar product to download but as I am not a Mac user I just don't remember the name.

Actually Daniel you can use more than one sound card simultaneously with asio4all.

Just for completeness, in case anyone else finds this topic, to do the same in OSX 10.4+...

- Open up Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup

- Click on the + icon, this will create a new Aggregate Device.

- Select all the audio devices you want to include in this virtual device. There are other options here such as resampling, you don't need to worry about those.

- Save and quit. Select this as your audio device in Cross. You should be able to select inputs and outputs from the various interfaces you selected in the Audio MIDI setup.

Hope this helps :)

Hi!

do I need Asio4All absolutely if I want to use 2 Sound-Interfaces (Same Manufactor and Model)? - For that interfaces, ASIO-Drivers are available...

I will avoid to install Software if it's not really necessary...

If they are Firewire devices I do not think so. You can chain them together to get more ins/outs using the same driver. Otherwise you have to use ASIO4ALL.
