Hi, hoping someone can help me out.
I have a G4 Mac, Automedia III card, running Pro Tools 5.1.1.
I'd like to record 4 separate tracks, simultaneously.
The left & right analog inputs on the Automedia III give me tracks 1 &
2.
Its my understanding that the s/pdif digital input on the A-III can
give me 2 more tracks.
What is the procedure to make this happen?
I can't get any signal to show up thru the digital input.
I tried turning off the s/pdif mirroring option.
Any suggestions?

I believe AMIII is 2in / 4out. It'd be good to be wrong on this one
though.

You have to set the clock sync to s/dpif in the hardware settings, use input
to 3 or 4, make sure the track is record enabled.

And yes the AMIII can do 4 channels in and out with PT LE. I still use one
at home with outboard converters for 2-channel stuff, no reason to
upgrade...

If memory serves, the limitation is obvious in the software UI. Input 1-2 in
hardware config. asks you to choose EITHER analog or digital. No?
