Echo Layla & Mia Together

[Neil Rutman]

Just bought a Mia to add to my Layla so I can have 10 analog inputs (up from
8). The Mia I got on ebay and works fine but does not have the cable that
connects it to Layla to lock the clock. Does anybody know if this is a
commercially available cable or do I need to talk to Echo people?

Thanks,

Neil R

The usual work-around is to hook the SP/DIF output of one card to the SP/DIF
input of the other and lock the clock of the slave card to its SP/DIF input.

Another approach is to get an outboard ADC and just get channels 9 and 10
from the digital input of the Layla, but you seem to be beyond that.
