1st of all I think its great to have these discussions on this forum as “is that what this forum is about?”
Just experimenting assists learning how it all works.
You could probably do what dcongdon talked about using USB B out.
Latency is the issue I suspect there.
I and probably many others use Reaper software in Mac as it is extremely light on the processor and very good price.
There are people that use Reaper software for live mixing.
I experimented last week doing nearly what was suggested here [out of USB B and back into ST3 via USB Digitally] and very little latency with out any FX per each channel within MAC.
I was experimenting using outboard FX (reverbs and chorus’s and doubling) within Reaper.
However that was ‘not’ with a lot of channels happening simultaneously.
All of that latency would add up or glitch?
I have not tried USB B into MAC using Reaper and out of USB to another QU though.
That might be fun?
Not even sure if that’s possible with out getting into script writing inside Reaper?
If you have the equipment sitting around and lots of time on your hands…
Easier to get a credit card and a different system?
Although for smaller channel count, 12 to 16 channels might be ok?
Food for thought.
