Not sure if this is the correct spot for this but i'll post anyway ....
I just picked up the motu 896HD and it has the optical digital in's on it.
My computer's sound card has SPDIF in and out on it. Would I be able to connect the output of my computer to the input of the Motu?
I dont want to have to get a set of speakers for the comp but i would like to have sound, I also don't want to take a pr of analog inputs away from my recording just to hear the comp.
Obviously i could just unplug them when i dont need them (i picked up a patch bay so i dont ruin the connections on the motu)
Anyway i'm just curious. The book doesnt say much about plugging in anything other than adat and sync equipment.
