i have a terratec phasex24 soundcard
(http://themagicofradio.com/AlsAudioIndex/SoundCards/Terratec%2520PhaseX%252024.html)
and now i want to use it with my patch (see attachment).
i want each of the 4 differrent sounds to be played over a different speaker, so i need 4 different channels.
how do i do this?

note: adding attachments seems not to be working right now, i'll try to add the patch later

To use more physical channels you first have to enable them in the audio setup (media -> asio): set the output device channels to the desired number (4 in you case). Next to have them available in a patch create this object : [dac~ 1 2 3 4]. This will have 4 audio-inlets, each one corresponding to a physical channel of your soundcard.
