In my other thread I forgot to ask this question:

Is there any way to get the digital signal out of the 2080, rather than an audio signal?

Currently I record the MIDI tracks (drums, bass, keyboards), then record mic guitar and vocals, then mix until I am happy with mix. At that point, I record the 2080 audio out as separate audio tracks (drums, bass, keyboards) in ProTools.

I take the 2080 audio out thru a A/D converter, then into digi001/ProTools.

I assume the sounds are generated in the 2080 digitally, then converted to audio output. Thus, I am going thru D/A, then A/D before the signal goes into ProTools. Can I avoid these conversion steps somehow?

Thanks!
Mike
