I have a profire 2626 which has digital or optical I/O's, whichever term you want to use. I am not talking about spdif. My cd player has the same type connection. I believe it uses a toslink cable. I know the optical connector on the interface will allow eight channels of input when connenting two interfaces together. My question is what happens when I connect a cd player to this port, will the cd player only use two of the inputs? The 2626 has an onboard dsp mixer and the inputs for the optical ports are grayed out when nothing is connected to the port. Will two inputs become active and the rest remain grayed out? Or can the cd player even be connected to this port? I'm just trying to get an idea of what to expect before I order a cable. Thanks.
