For the future OSX version please give us 64 or even 128 i/o each way.
For serious composing rigs:
If farming cpu's heads down the network direction like it has with Vienna Ensemble Pro, a lot of i/o from the host daw is required to bring it all into the scope environment for mixing/summing.
It would eleviate the need for so much digital i/o from all the cpu farms.
so in the hardware i/o devices please give us core audio devices with 128 ins and 128 outs, variable like the current asio i/o
