Focusrite Saffire Pro 40 and Command|8 Control Surface

[EmperorMusic]

Hey guys.

Just got my hands on a great used Digidesign/Focusrite Command|8 Control Surface! Everything works great and smooth with it but I was wondering if there was a way to control my Saffire Pro 40 monitor level with the Command|8 "control room Level" knob.

Or, if possible is there a way to use the Command|8 as a "thru pass" for the monitors but still have control over them, where the monitors go:

SaffireMonitorOUT > Command8ExternalSourceIN > Command8SpkrOUT > MonitorIN

It seems like I must be just dreaming, I cannot find the capabilities to do this anywhere!

If anyone has any suggestions or work-arounds please post!

Thanks

Hi,

Out of the sapphire into "monitor inputs" then from "outputs" to your monitors!

Awesome thank you, so I was correct! Gonna have to get some more monitor cables. Will i notice any loss in quality at all running it through the Command8?
