Hey guys i just started recording Acoustic Drums in my studio and i Bought the Presonus ACP88: The chain is: Sm57's on toms and snare,EV N/D 868 for Kick,And 2 MXL 603's for Overheads (Looking to updrade those in the future!)

Here is the thing:My livewire Snake is XLR to XLR but the Presonus ACP 88 is all TRS,how to connect the XLR's on the TRS inputs on the ACP88,i am planning to connect the output of the ACP88 thru the M-Audio Octane.

Thanks!
 
Mics should still go into the Octane (which has XLR inputs) then the Octane will allow TRS inserts on each channel for compression before the digital out. You just need 8 insert cables

That says it all!!

I've had 2 ACP88's the first one pooped out on me and now the 2nd one has lost #5 channel! :(
