Hello. So I was looking at the MOTU 828mkII and I see 8 in and out analog jacks. Now, what I don't understand is this whole ADAT Optical I/O thingy.

http://www.motu.com/products/motuaudio/828/inout.html

Theres a diagram showing the whole setup, but I don't get the ADAT I/O thing... what plugs into that? Is it possible to get 8 more ins and outs with this and be able to record 16 tracks at the same time? I don't understand what the whole ADAT thingy is... could someone explain what it is and what it does or maybe show me to a site where I can learn myself? Thanks!

Okay, that makes sense. Thanks a bunch, but now, what about this Apogee Rosetta AD/DA converter. How does this work? I understand it doesn't have the ADAT, but this is another question.

I don't understand where this comes in on the chain of recording... is there a cable you plug into there that gives you the I/Os you need?

One last thing, do you have an example of what interface I could plug ADAT to get 8 more I/O?
