Thanks for clearing me up on that. I take it the "native interface" inside
the host (to dedicated hw mentioned below) is part of GMPI?

So if the host only sees a native interface currently, then I don't get the
above question since the host is not seeing two different data types. Is the
"host" referred to the application (ProTools, Cakewalk, etc.)?
Should I assume that all GUI representations of data piped via the "native
interface" have conversions from int that are represented consistently
across applications?
