Hi
I'm a apple user for years now and was always really pleased until os9 turned to osx and I was left in the cold with my creamware pulsar system.

But now it's G5 time for me at last and Logic pro time also, and I was wondering if I could link my G5 with it's analogue output to the monitors, and with the digital connectors to my old and trusty G4 400 mhz wich will function as my digital mixer running pulsar.

or do I need a special box to have multiple I/O

if so what would you guys recomend to use

best regards

well not sure of that yet,
the first id was to have all the mixing done in the G4 send it through spdif to G5 as a single stereo stream (there's isn't that much happening on the hardware side) and then send it through the analogue out the the monitors
THIS CAN'T BE DONE i'm told

the next idea was adding some sort of pci or FW device wich has adat and then send 8 of the 16 outs from pulsar to G5, lets say subgroups (like on analogue mixers) and then go by another analogue output to the monitors.
HERE ANY ADVICE ON DEVICES IS WELCOMED

the third option is convincing apple to add Adat as a firmware update for the digital out

the fourth option is writing some software wich can transfer 8 channels over firewire without any ADDA conv (I WISH I COULD DO THAT)

best regards
