The VM3100Pro/RPC-1 will work with the ICE1712 driver. It is however to
terribly stable in my experience running at 96kHz at anywhere near low
latency(It was one of the first 96kHz boards that I was aware of, and at
low latencies I couldnt get it to stable without dropouts etc). I also
had a few other problems with it on occasion in as far as playing non
44.1 or 48 sample rates, however that was only on occasion and really
depended on my install leading me to believe I missed a step somewhere
on those occasion in setting it up.
Obviously you would want to use envy24control with it. I never tried
mapping the Midi, I still have it laying around my house so I may try to
map it as a midi controller sometime. Note that the Pres are pretty
noisy and not all that good in general, you would probably do better
buying a cheap 100 dollar Art Pre or something to that effect. Key word
there is of course Probably.
