Don't forget the ability to mix the hardware inputs back in with the playback on the headphone output. 










Just so it's clear, my point is that the OP has a plan to achieve a goal... I'm assuming it's the best immediate option for him.

If you have a mixer and some cables, maybe a Y-cord, there's a bunch of other ways to do it too... but I figure the OP wouldn't be asking about using the spdif if there were other immediate options.

I don't have any knowledge of the little spdif boxes...  so I just came by to read.

The first thing I imagined is that the OP is using the analog outputs for monitoring while overdubbing... so they are already in use and he needs another discrete send to trigger a hardware vocoder.

Duh!

It seems discouraging to see someone discourage someone from using the 2nd pair of outputs on the QUAD capture.

I thought maybe someone might be wanting to make a point of suggesting monitoring with a hardware mixer and using it to split the signals.

It might be an option.

What is your point of saying you don't see the point? 

Do you suspect that the OP has some unused analog send that hasn't been considered for use with a discrete send to the vocoder trigger?

Maybe the fact that this was posted well over a week ago and the OP hasn't had the courtesy to actually detail what his intentions are? Or did that escape your myopic gaze?

Welcome to 2013 Mike - glad to see you're continuing where you left off with 2012

Courtesy?


Who are you, Miss Manners or something?

Something you seem to lack in generally

OP was "online" earlier but hasn't dropped by to elaborate, so perhaps we will never know.

Maybe it's because post #4 was an actual answer to the OP question.

Post #3 and #4 both seemed helpful and informative.

What more is there to discuss?




best regards,

It's nice to know when a question has been answered, would you not agree?

I usually consider how courteous the question seems before I choose to acknowledge and/or answer it.

I don't think that every question can expect to be answered. 

Thanks for asking so politely.

:-)

Oops, I totally forgot this thread...my apologies.

I ended up getting a Lindy dig>analogue converter and plugged it into the coax out 3/4 of the quad capture.

Since out 1L/2R also go to the phones out I didn't want to use those.

Thanks for the entertaining thread in my absence! ^^
