Sonar + Fireface + yamaha 01v96?
Hi all--
silly question as I know how it's supposed to work, but in practice know things don't always work as they're supposed to.
I'll be recording a live gig tonight with 20 inputs to a laptop rig with a fireface. Fortunately, I've got transformer isolated splits from the stage. The first 16 ins will be going into a Yamaha 01v96 board, and into the fireface via light pipe. The remaing 4 will go into the Fireface's mic pre's.
For synchronization, I intend on taking the 01v96's word clock out into the fireface's WC input. The question is, if any of you have experience with this, have you had better luck with:
Syncing the FF via ADAT?
Using the FF as master and slaving the o1v96 to it?
syncing via spdif in either direction?
Oh, and I'll also be running these 20 ins via the fireface mixer to another laptop rig running nuendo for a semi-redundant recording. Am thinking looping the WC from the first fireface into the second will be the most appropriate way to sync the second system. Any opinions on this?
recording will be 24/48.
thanks!
