WIGGLING 'LITE' IN GUEST MODE

[julienbayle]

Hi there,

I'd like to use ES8 as an expander for my Fireface UC through ADAT (in order to avoid USB etc)

Did someone already make this?

Best,

You can do that, but it would be cheaper to use an ES-3, plus an ES-6 if you want inputs.

I'm sorry I didn't even thank you for the answer.

So, it means that I can connect the ES6 optical output via optical cable to ES8 optical in ?

[os]

Yes, but not if the ES-8 is connected to the UC via ADAT.

My suggestion was to connect the UC to an ES-3 and an ES-6.

As I want to use the ES8 I got, I'd expand it using the ES6.
I'd still need the double USB connection (AND aggregated device):

ES6->ES8--> interface 1
UC --> interface 2

interface 1 + interface 2 = one aggregated audio device


Just afraid of one aggregated audio device in Live:

In general Aggregate Devices work fine.
