Thanks for the info.
BTW, I'm purchasing a Mackie 32x8x2 for use with my 24-track ADAT system, and 
a question came up.  I wasn't really satisfied with the answer my salesperson 
gave me -- couldn't really trust the guy.  :)  But the question is:  Is it 
alright to take the unbalanced +4dBu direct outs from the channel strip into 
the balanced ELCO-style connector of the ADATs and come back from the 
alanced
ELCO's into balanced +4dBu tape returns?  
If it's only an operating level issue, then I see no problem.  However, I'm 
not sure if you can go from unbalanced to the balanced ELCO on the ADATs.  
The cold pins wouldn't be shorted in this instance with the shields.  (Now 
that I think about it, I think it should be alright.)  But let me know if you 
have an opinion.
Thanks!
