[. . . ] In most cases, it shows up as an additional fader control surface in the DAW. For example, if you had an FW-1884 and two FE-8s, they would all show up individually in your DAW setup. You would have to tell the software how you have them arranged, so it knows which one is controlling faders 1-8, 9-16 and 17-24. Once this is done, the configuration is remembered since each FE-8 has its own FireWire ID. Q: Is it available for all operating systems?A: Yes, a new FW-1884 driver will be available for Mac OS 9, Mac OS X, Windows 2000 and Windows XP to support the FE-8.
