Re: OT MAC G5 digital audio in, a question...



M-Audio makes a little device called a Co3 that does SPDIF optical
to coax (actually it does all direction of all three connection types:
Coax, TOS-Link, and AES/EBU)

ciao a tutti


just a question to a small problem

I've noticed that on the new G5 Mac there's a digital audio input;

This most probably means that if I use a machine
that has a digital audio out I could bypass an audio interface and
bringing the digital signal to any audio software in the computer
by the internal soundmanager


It seems very useful and could even help to save some money... but
the digital in on the G5 is optical and, at least on the audio processors I have,
digital out are often (if not only) SPDIF.

I think Apple should have been takin' care of that...

Does anybody know if there's a way to connect something with a digital audio SPDIF out with a computer that has a digital audio in optical?

Seams a bit OT but think to your repetear...

thanks

ciao
