Re: 882 Studio interface upgrade?
Don't know if this helps, but there may be more of a market for it for older Mac systems. The 882/Studio works with Pro Tools Nubus systems, all the way up to Pro Tools III Nubus on a Powermac 7100 or 8100. Someone with one of those systems might want to double their I/O capability from 8 to 16 by adding the 882/Studio and a Bridge I/O card. It even uses the same cable. You might want to try selling it on the used market, or if you do donate it, a school or organization with a Pro Tools III NuBus system might be able to use it. The tricky part is that they would have to find a Bridge I/O on the used market in order to hook up a second interface.
I agree, it does seem a shame that many of the things in this business that were state of the art yesterday end up hard to give away tomorrow. Even the requests to our charity committee are mostly for PCI equipment only.
