The NI 6132/3 and NI 6120 support warp mode.  Warp mode is an acquisition mode that is supported on some A/D converters. It allows a faster sample time per channel but has some restrictions. 

When using warp mode, an external clock must be provided to the analog input. This external clock can come from an external device or from one of the onboard counters on the device itself. 

Note: When using warp mode, the first point in the acquired data is bad and should be discarded. Furthermore, the NI 6120 warp mode will introduce an uncalibrated offset to acquired data.  

NI-6133 warp mode speed is 3MS/sec/channel at 14-bits
NI-6132 warp mode speed is 3MS/sec/channel at 14-bits
NI-6120 warp mode speed is 1MS/sec/channel at 16-bits

The .llbs attached are specific to the hardware that you are using.

Sample code poorly documented. E.g. how should the VISA input be set?
