Will Cubase SX recognize more than one audio interface?

Just curious. Time to upgrade and want to check my options.
Currently using a Motu 828.

Thanks!

Can you clarify what you mean

I have two interfaces n my machine; 2 x Lynx AES16's and an M-Audio transport (for bare bones PT use)

If I wanted to I could chose one or the other

Not sure if this is specifically what you are asking

I would like to use more than one audio interface, simultanenously, to run more inputs and outputs. The Motu 828 has the ability to daisy chain with another 828, but I would rather add a higher quality piece.

Mac OSX 10.4+ implements "Aggregate Device": Allows multiple I/O to be seen as one device. Cubase can see this.

Thanks guys! That pretty much covers all angles of the question. I will either buy another Motu (the 896 runs on the same driver), or go with another brand and buy OSX 10.4 (I am now at 10.3.9).
