Audio 8 to Firewire 800 port

Audio 8 to Firewire 800 port

Would it be safer to run the Audio 8 sound-card through the standard cable it comes with or can I run it through my firewire port? if firewire can some one send me the link for the cable..

audio8 is usb only

yeah and I honestly wouldn’t trust a Firewire to USB crossover. Seems like it cause issues.

it does just fine through the USB port, why change it?

Wont work at all dude.
The Audio 8 is USB 2 only.

In theory it would be possible because both ports use allmost identical cabling and data transmission methods (even though they go about doing it in different ways). however you would need a translation box (this would cause latency you could program one using a assembly language though) in the cross over cable to convert the signal. You would have to write a firewire version of the driver for the audio 8 as i would think the port would only accept a incoming firewire signal. All in all it really is not worth the effort.
