Hi all,
I've poked around a few sites and can't find a satisfactory answer to the sort of question only one with a unique and profound ignorance such as myself can muster.
I currently record with and Echo Layla 3G, Seventh Circle pres, and a few really nice mics. In the steady gear-march forward, I'm thinking about upgrading to high end converters.
So, here come the dumb questions:
How do you use an external converter? I know the chain would be Mic, Pre, Converter, spdif or lightpipe to Echo. But does the Echo just become a conduit for the converter? Is an external clock required? I'll start there.
