CONNECTING MULTIPLE MOTU FIREWIRE
INTERFACES
You can daisy-chain up to four MOTU FireWire
interfaces on a single FireWire bus, with the
restrictions described in the following sections.
Most computers have only one built-in FireWire
bus (even if it supplies multiple FireWire sockets).
Figure 4-10: Connecting multiple MOTU FireWire audio interfaces.
Multiple interfaces cannot be bus-powered
Do not run the UltraLite-mk3 under bus power
when connecting it with other devices to the same
FireWire bus. See “Power options” and “Bus power
requirements” on page 23.
Multiple interfaces in MOTU Audio Console
MOTU Audio Console displays the settings for one
interface at a time. To view the settings for an
interface, click its tab as shown below in
Figure 4-11.

Synchronizing multiple interfaces
All connected MOTU FireWire interfaces get their
clock from whatever you choose from the Clock
Source menu in the General tab in MOTU Audio
Console. When you connect multiple MOTU
FireWire interfaces, all of their respective sync
sources are displayed in the menu as shown below
in Figure 4-12.
