Hi,

I have 2 PCs.
For my older one I am tring to use a BCA2000 audio interface
(http://www.zzounds.com/prodsearch?form=prodsearch&q=bca)
and on the new one I have a Luna
(http://creamware.com/ go to scope home )

I want to connect them using the digital interface , the BCA has 2 digital ports , one In one Out . they both can be either s/pdif or AES .
My question is:
Which type of cables do I need ?
I.e how do I connect the Luna's one port to the BCA 2 ports?

Thanks,

Sid

Just get a coaxial SPDIF cable and set the BCA's input to SPDIF. That's all really!

Hi thanks for the answer,

I want the BCA output to go to the Luna's input , so I can use the Luna A/D conbertor .

correct me if I am wrong but SPDIF is RCA connectors on a 75 ohm cable , what is the plug that the Luna needs to be connected ?

Or am I wrong ?

Thanks
