U know that spdif mirrors the main outs.


ALL outs sum up and are output through spdif. No matter what you send through any individual
out, it all sums up and still comes out spdif.

Have just spoken to Akai & Focusrite and none of them have ever heard of SPDIF on a 1/4 jack either. I can't be the only person in the world with this weird card ;-)

Think I'll pick up another card with RCA out to make life easier.

Yeah I have the Mutec in my 2k and can confirm that the digital outs are jacks.
I've never used them though to be honest, but I'm sure there must be some sort of cable thats suitable.

Yeah - that's fien. My card has 4 analogue in's and the SPDIF so I'll use the SPDIF for teh MPC and the analogues for my other gear.

Just bought a new card from Ebay so my pain won't last that long, and I'll sell the old card.

Thanks for all your help,
