I have a Pulsar 2 Plus and a Luna in my system. That gives me two audio ins for the Luna and 2 balanced audio ins for the Pulsar but there are various other ins that I'm not using like SPDIF and some others. It's advertised as having 20 ins/outs but it seems to me most of them are for obscure stuff I can't use that is maybe more for pro studios etc. Problem is I have 3 hardware synths (a Korg workstation, a VL70m and a Nord G2 Modular engine) and a microphone and only 2 audio ins I can use so is there any way I can make use of some of these other ins (like an adapter to make SPDIF into a normal jack perhaps) so I can connect all my hardware synths to Scope's mixers. At the moment my workaround is to make use of the fact that the Nord G2 has lots of ins/outs so I'm feeding my Vl70 through the G2 - it works in that I can use it's effects which is cool but the downside is I get some signal noise this way.

if you don't have mony to spend on a Luna ADDA 8In/Out box, you could think of a patchbay, they are cheap today :smile:
At least it makes life easier, you can make a dummy track of one synth before switching to another one :smile:

Yes cheap is what I need :smile: Patchbays sound useful but isn't there a way to make use of the connections I already have like SPDIF and DAT (I think thats it) - what are they for and can I not convert them into something more useable like a jack plug or XLR?

Ah sorry I didn't realise that.

I took one of my two boxes out the rack, as essentially redundant.
I sell it for € 190,-, or I'll keep it and sleep on it :wink:

Thanks - that does look nice but I don't have that sort of money at the moment.
