SB Live ! connection with a multitrack recorder

[Papoola]

Hi, I tried to connect my SB live with my Multitrack recorder (Korg D16) The reason is that I need to record a softsynth pattern into one of the track of the recorder.
As output of the Live I wanted to use the S/pdif which is a RCA connector, while the Korg accept S/pidif but fiber optic cable connector.
What to do ???
Maybe there is another way to record that track into my digital recorder, isn't ??
Tks a lot for your help

There are quite a few boxes out there that convert optical to RCA and vice versa, M-Audio/Midiman makes a couple called the CO2 and CO3.

If your Korg doesnt have S/PDIF, just use the line out....

Gidge, my korg HAS the spdif but accept opctical cale only.

I use a Fostex COP-1 device which has 2 Optical to Coax converters built in. It was about $100 a year ago.

..that Midiman CO2 unit that vox gave the link for goes for 59.99 at American Musical Supply...can probably find a better deal,but thats the ballpark....
