Davis recommends on the Ardour site would be the safest bet. Oops. ;-) The plan was to use linux as an outboard effects processor to protools, using the digi9652 spdif I/O to create an aux send/ret loop in the PT mixer, printing the returns so as to be able to build many layers of them. No need to pay absurd prices for questionable Digi-partner beta software...not that Im saving anything at the moment! So let me start over: Does anyone know of a fully-functioning spdif-capable audio device? One that "just works" would be great after this...
