Topic: FireFace 400 with a laptop question
Hi, my MacBook pro is a bit too slow these days 2011 i5 model, so i recently bought a laptop with an i7 7700HQ. However it doesn't have a firewire port or a means to add one. I understand I can use the Fireface 400 in standalone mode for monitoring (which is all it's used for anyway) so I'm thinking about something like a USB to coaxial SPDIF to get the digital output from my DAW to the FF400 for mixing on my monitors and headphones.
Anyone know of a small USB to SPDIF device that would do the job? Some have outlandish prices but all I want is to get the zeros and ones to my FF400 via a coaxial SPDIF cable
