To be honest, I don't see much use in this and I don't understand its
purpose...
recording midi and bouncing just works great and I don't see any use in
recording my DXi inputs.
The way the DXi2 outputs appear in the audio inputs is just the way Sonar
does manage multiple outputs.
Other software don't see the software synths in the same way Sonar does.
Hardware would induce latency as bouncing makes a 0 latency result.
Erik.
