But it seems that you still need a pcie card so how is it native? I really want portability!!! HD on a laptop is what I would call HD-native... I guess its a step (though small) in the right direction.

I do have to agree with you Angus. I like HD alot too and dig my hd2/lynx/apogee setup.

From reading it the card is just a PCIe I/O allowing you to hook up your current (& future) HD boxes to it.... (+ yr controller)... biggest giveaway that it isnt a dsp card is there's no TDM support.

Are you sure it is a PCIe card without any processing at all?

The number of available voices still scales down according to sample rate. It leads me to think that the mix engine itself is still DSP powered while plugin processing is entire native.

It's because of the HD Native Core card and tight integration with Pro Tools HD that we can ensure a stable, professional experience on the host.

Sorry for being the PT fanboy, but I still like working with it (in-between crashes!)

Yes.... I couldn't work out what is so "native" about it..... :-?

It seems the overwhelming response is err underwhelming

They've saved a few dollars by not putting DSP on the board?
