[linux-audio-user] Two Card As One (Delta 1010LT) ??

Hi Thomas,

I can't help you out of firsthand experience (I just have one 
Delta1010), but I believe this page addresses your question (using a RME 
Hammerfall example) 
http://www.alsa-project.org/alsa-doc/doc-php/asoundrc.php

Also note that you probably need to sync your Deltas externally using 
Wordclock.

Cheers,
Walco
