hey, that is cool to know (as a non-osx user, i wouldn't have expected
something like that to exist, but i think, i know quite some people who
could benefit from that).
just in case you know: do you have an idea how this system deals with
the fact, that each of this cheapo soundcards have their own clock? does
it use one as the master clock and does apply a samplingrate conversion
to the other in order to sync it?
i am asking, because i would like to know, if any decrease in sound
quality is expected when you use aggregate.
