From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Anyone have experience using ADAT to extend their Focusrite Scarlett 18i20 (or similar devices)?

I can buy a used Focusrite Saffire PRO 40 for about 60Euro and wanted to use it to extend my Scarlett 18i20 to get a total of 16 Mic inputs, but I don't have any experience with ADAT and would prefer not to buy something that'll turn out to be a 60Euro brick.

Thanks, I assume that the cable I use for transferring from DAT to pc can be used for this as well.

Yes, the Scarlett will just sync itself to the external adat signal. It's the only option anyway because the Scarlett lacks clock inputs and has no adat output the external device could sync to.

? My Scarlett have a world-clock BNC and optical I/O (sorry for the potato quality)
