posting a question for a friend:


What I need to know is how to get audio from 8
tracks of Final Cut Pro (or Pro Tools, Soundtrack Pro etc etc), via
Firewire or USB into 8 tracks of DA88, or DA98, which takes digital
signals in via a 25 pin serial connector on what they refer to as a
TDIF-1 standard. I don't even know if FCPs audio data is directly
compatible with TDIF-1. Deck control would be via RS422 over a USB
Keyspan connector.

If the system you are using can make AES outputs, you can run them thru
a Tascam IF88AE box which is a bidirectional AES-TDIF convertor.
Another path is to get your tracks to ADAT Lightpipe format and then
use the Tascam IF-TAD box to convert the Lightpipe to TDIF. If you can
get to AES, you can probably rent the box you need from a place like
Audio Rents in LA. The other alternative is to go out of your system
analog and back into the DA88 as analog.

many thanks for the advice, and sorry about the length of the subject
line - it is not as i intended, but at least it wasn't misleading <'L'>
