Outboard AD/DA to pair with Digi001

Post by cwileyriser » Tue Jan 31, 2006 6:57 pm

Is there a reasonably priced (under $1000) 8-ch AD/DA lightpipe converter than will let me do A/D conversion to send 8 ADAT tracks into ProTools LE and D/A conversion to send 8 audio tracks to an outboard mixer, so that I can send a total of 16 analog audio tracks (8 from my 001 and 8 from the outboard converter) out of ProTools to my outboard mixer? The Alesis AI-3 just does A/D conversion, right? I don't need a converter with mic pres.

Thanks. Guess I should have checked out the Alesis site for stats on the AI-3 instead of a retailer's site! The AI-3 will do fine, it looks like.
