i don't know what is steinberg systemlink, but i tried to use 2 computers together just for fun and to see how will work.
first computer had two pulsars cards while the second comp. had some teratec with 8 analog outs.
i opened cubase in both computers.
midi conection was: keyboard to firstcomputer (with cw cards) and midi out from pulsar to second computer.
on this way i was able to play pulsar's instruments from first computer, giga studio from second and vst instruments from both in the same time 100% synchronised.
8 audio outs from teratec i conected to adat and from adat with optical cable to pulsar.
in pulsar's project i add adat source and connect to pulsar's mixer.
on this way i had all sources from both computers in pulsar's mixer.

I thought that VST systemlink used SP/DIF as the digital link. Are you sure it works with ADAT?

I think so, since Steinberg recommends adat over s/pdif....

from Steinberg: "VST System Link, a new protocol for interconnecting multiple computers
by way of standard digital audio cables and formats such as ADAT, TDIF, AES "

awesome, I guess it's always better to connect at light speed! :wink:

new equation: lightspeed = 10 samples at 48 khz :wink:
when I feed a channel from my mixer to Pulsar via Adat, then back into the mixer (without processing in SFP) and record the mixer's master out then both signals are 20 samples (guess it was about 0.5 ms) apart.
