Thanks for the detailed explanation, been looking for a guide to connect other interfaces than Audient's to the Evo SP8. Your videos were very helpful, I have some follow up questions though if you don't mind answering them. I'll be using a Focusrite Clarett+ 4Pre as my main interface and expanding it with the Audient Evo SP8. I'll only be outputting audio into my DAW (Logic) and to monitors, so no outboard gear.
I'm a bit of a beginner at this, so just to make sure I understand correctly how I should set everything up:
One Toslink cable is connected from ADAT OUT on the Audient Evo SP8, to OPTICAL IN on the Clarett+ 4Pre
In Focusrite Control, Clarett+ 4Pre is set to Clock Source = Internal ; Sample Rate = 48 kHz ; Digital I/O = S/PDIF RCA
Audient Evo SP8 is set to Clock Source = Digital ; Sample Rate = 48 kHz ; Word Clock Termination = On; Output Source = Digital
Restart both devices, and then there should be 16 audio inputs available in my DAW, right?
