Best regards,

I think that is because you are using two different devices for
input and output. Currently IO has to be on the same device.

It's the same with CoreAudio

Can you set up an Aggregate device (in Audio MIDI setup), where the  
Firewire is the input and Built-in is the output.  Then you should be  
able to set the Aggregate device as the default and use -odac?  I  
don't have an external device to test this with unfortunately.

Sorry to bring this up again; I'm just now catching up with my email. I 
have a Firewire card that has 10 analogue ins and 8 analogue outs. I 
would like to use csound with real time audio IO with ASIO but I can't 
get it to work as my XLR inputs are on channels 9 and 10 and thus out of 
range. Is this purely a PortAudio issue and if so are there any plans to 
change it so that it can handle more inputs than outputs or Vice Versa?

regards,
Rory.
