Does anyone know of a simple way to get an 8CH ADAT signal into a laptop/desktop?

Question

The only interfaces I can find with ADAT cost more than I am willing to spend, and have a lot of features and inputs that I do not need.

Ideally this would be a simple USB/FIREWIRE/PCI device with 1 ADAT input and output.

Support for at least WinXP would be a must.

Somthing in the $0-100 range.

Answer 1

I'd say the cheapest FireWire/ADAT interface would be M-Audio's FireWire 1814, still exceeding your budget though ($300), unless you'll buy second hand.

Answer 2
