I am once again a happy camper and the solution was to use the "y" splitter cable. I have a couple coming form newegg.com
I may have a go at emailing the dude at Sweetwater who sold me the card. In the past he has been very helpful !
That said, I am a bit disappointed it has become such hard work getting any sort of response from RME ! It is not like Im asking for freebies and trying to pull a fast one. This is...
I have emailed George at synthax a couple of times. In the past he has been really brilliant, prompt and all the things you'd expect.
Previously he handled testing the RME Digi 96/8 PAD card I have to check for G5 compatibility. They did this by the book and it was painless.
I now use MOTU...

Is it better, when over dubbing, to play back of one disk and record onto another, or to play and record onto the same disk ?
I would have thought it would be: to read one and write to another however in this crazy technologiifieracatious world...
FWIW, I got a Focusrite Octopre the other day and love it !! This far I have used it on Bongos, Cello, Flute, Bass, acoustic and electric and love it !
Not right up their but great bang for your buck !
the Yarii has a very fine rep. I have never heard one bad comment about the way they sound or play.
I have an Alvarez acoustic (not a Yarii) and if you treat it properly and use bronze 80/20 strings (the phosphobronze ones sound like poo) it will sing for you !
The bridge pizo pickup is also...
I have a couple of 828s (fw into my G5) and they are great.
