When using the "lightpipe" method, you aren't transferring files,
you're transferring digital audio, and a new file or files is created
on the computer end. It's strictly real time - play on the ADAT,
record on the computer. If you have 24 channels of lightpipe interface
on your computer, you can do it all in one pass. If you have 8 chanels
of lightpipe interface, it takes three passes, or three times real
time, plus whatever time it takes to line up the groups of tracks.

I'm wondering if one could pull the HD from an HD24, hook it to one of
the Wiebetech Firewire DriveDock thingies, and mount the drive on a
computer? Or would Alesis' propirietary file format bite one?
