OK! Thanks!

Guess I have to show you what I am talking about. Is it the same as TOSLINK? This is my ADAT cable:

Couldn't be more pleased. I'll tell ya, couldn't be happier with my new ADA8000 A/D D/A preamps. They sound at least as good as the pre's in my AW4416. Of course, they are no match for my Presonus unit, but who's complaining. I got 16 decent sounding inputs with ADAT optical in's & out's for...

That's what I thought. You can't use just any optical cable for an ADAT connection. Wal-Mart, Radio Shack, etc. are not likely to carry them. So, anyone know of a good source (web retailer) for them?

Doesn't the ADAT type have square ends? Other formats I've seen have round ends.

Go Taylor Get the 310 series. My favoites are the 714 and 814 series, but they're out of your price range. If you were to turn off the lights and listen all three, you'd be hard pressed to tell them apart. The 310 has a beautiful tone that is well suited for recording. Another brand you...

Anyone know of a good source (cheap) for these babies? I've paid through the nose for them in the past.

Couldn't wait... I bought two. After doing a little searching, I have been able to find posts on other boards about the ADA8000. All very complementary, so I took the plunge. They arrived today. $199 each with shipping! At that price I don't have a lot to loose. Haven't had time to use...

I don't know much about the Tascam model, but I believe that in addition to being a control surface, it is also an audio interface with an assortment of analog and digital ins and outs. The Mackie is, of course, midi only.

I also have a Mackie control and love it. Couldn't consider going back to a mouse.

LOL, junplugged! :)

Paj, I specifically want to be able to go right into the ADAT lightpipe inputs on my MOTU 2408 and also on my Yamaha AW4416 portable rig. The Behringer unit will do that. That being said, I am currently drooling over the Focusrite Octopre. Talk about a nice piece of gear. 8 class A pre's...

Cool thread! I've been looking at resonators for a little while with the intention of buying one soon. Got a couple of questions, though: What are the advantages of the two neck styles (square vs round)? What are the most common (useful) tunings? I assume that the square neck design would...

Is Tuesday "Behringer Day"? Glad I got that right. In that case, which day is "Yamaha Day"? Got a few ?'s about them too! ;)
