Thanks, "double." That looks like a good solution for me. Most of the products I've looked at feature mic pres, which I don't necessarily need and no doubt add to the price. I could always use a pair otwo more of mic pres if they sound good, tho'.

I'd love to hear any experiences users have had with the Presonus, Behringer, Mackie/Onyx, etc., audio interfaces with digital conversion. And do the ones that don't use lightpipe also easily adopt the 8 ADAT ins in PT? Do any of them need an separate word clock to synch the third party interface with the Digi 002?

Digidesign: This is a great service to users, but your search engine didn't intially retrieve messages that could have helped answer my question. When I went through each message on the board mannually, if basically found my answer that the most direct way to do what I want is throught the ADAT interface/I/O channels.
