Do I need to buy Artificial Audio's product?

I've tried using the I/O plug-in on aux channels to route audio from bus sends to and from the outboard, but I've always experienced unusable amounts of latency. I am really excited to see if this will work.

Any other advice for someone just trying this? I'm using a MacBookPro with a FF800, and I'd love to be using my outboard in my little studio other than just at other studios and for live stuff.

Cheers and thanks for this thread!!
I've been rockin' for over a month with this method, and it's been flawless. Sometimes when I'm cleaning up a session, I'll remove one of my bypassed i/o plugins and sh*t will fall apart, then I'll realize what I did, and re-insert, but that's the only downfall.

It's still worthwhile to pickup the Artificial Audio Latency Bundle to calculate exactly the round trip latency, which isn't compensated for.

GO FORTH AND USE YOUR OUTBOARD GEAR!!!
