Nope, but why would they? So you could buy a bunch of cheap crappy interfaces like fast track pros and link them all together?
Actually for a while you could have multiple delta 1010s working at once, but they took that out in 7.3 IIRC

actually two delta 1010s is what i had in mind with it but guess not.....that was a dumb move for them to take that option away.

It was a mistake that it was working at all

That thread says they took it out in v7.1, but then someone had it working in 7.3.1cs4 which is pretty close to the current version, 7.4 cs2
Only worked with 2 Delta 1010 racks, must be synced together.

Why would you need more than one interface? I can understand wanting/needing more inputs, but if that's the case, then one interface connected via ADAT/Lightpipe to an eight channel pre, and SPDIF connected to another two channels increases inputs by 10. If you start with the ProjectMix, then you are now at 18 mic/instrument inputs.
I used to use two FW1814s, and they worked great together in PT. The M-Audio Software is even setup for it, and they both show up, and you have hardware mix control of both.
I've got a Profire Lightbridge now too, I wonder if that'd work with my old FW1814

on the delta 1010 you would need more than one if you have a five piece or more drumset and you wanna mic bottom and top snare and you're mic'ing all toms, and you are gonna do all that with a direct and mic'd bass.

Fair enough. Although, I don't think I would track drums and bass simultaneously, it would be easy enough to do them separately (plus more $ for you). That would free up two, and you get two more via SPDIF, but I could see where a total of 12 could be limiting. Why not track in a more friendly environment (Reaper, Cubase, etc.) that would allow multiple interfaces and then port the raw tracks into PTMP?
