Order of launch in multiple chain of apps?

Question

I note that the instructions for using Kyma via Zoom ("Getting sound from Kyma onto a network") has "Launch Kyma" as the last step. Should this be followed in other, related, multi-app chains?

E.G., I am using OBS as the AV control app on my laptop, with BlackHole running in the background. #1 audio interface (Pacarana out) is MOTU UltraLite mk3, and #2 audio interface (MOTU to laptop) is Scarlett 2i2. Everthing seems to be working thus far, and I did launch Kyma last. Question: Is there a reason to always launch Kyma last? Or, does the order not matter. Thanks!

Answer 1

If the connection between your two interfaces is analog, the order of launching doesn't matter. If the connection is digital, it may be better to start the clock master first (so it would depend on which interface is the clock master).
