Title: Subway and Delfina in 1200
Post by: magistral on May 30, 2007, 06:51:16 PM
Hi ppl:

Well, finally i've a Subway 1200 and Delfina 1200.
And yes, i cannot use both at the same time, but... anyone ever tryed to design/manufacture a switch?
I mean, i use the usb sometimes, and i don't need to have it connected all the time. I can switch to Subway when i need USB and then back to Delfina when i need sound...

Any ideas?
Anyone have the same clockport problem?

Regards!

I think one of the mythical clockport quadruplers is your only option. They're tough to find.

Argh... it's almost impossible to get one... i've never seen one in ebay (since jan 2006)...

I need a homemade solution...

Jens Schoenfeld has previously confirmed that these two devices will not work with a quad-clockport adapter.

How can this be?  They will both work on a single X-surf board, which has two clockports, right?

Aren't the x-surf clockpots not really clockports, just something that work just like them?

(Hey I could be wrong, I'm no hardware genius)

If it looks like a duck and it quacks like a duck...

Please note i don't need BOTH devices at same time, i can disconnect one and use the other. I only want to know if there exists a possibility to manufacture a homemade (or not) switch. I think it's easy. (i THINK)
