You will have to read up in your pro tools manual on how to set the 002 to master and the ADA8000 will act as slave. (can be done the other way around, but I don't see any advantage to that). You can buy the lightpipe cables online at a good price, or you can pay up at a retail store. Keep them as short as possible. I wouldn't suggest buying "high quality" lightpipes, particularly if you are taking the rig out of the studio. Just don't kink them, step on them, etc.
Thanks for the info! This could have been a fiasco!
