Hi,
it's good choice, no doubt. I am using the Multiface under Windows and
MacOS.

With PD, you can use all channels with the provided MME drivers, but the
latency is far too high for live electronics.
It may be fine for just playing music, though.
I have had no luck with the -asio option but i hope the PD ASIO support will
stabilize soon.

hope that helps,
Thomas
