Hi,

I have a AD/DA Unit (Focusrite Clarret OctoPre) that output 8 channels of  analog, balanced output on a DB-25 Connector (Tascam Format).

- I want to take channel 1 and 2 and feed Input A. (which are 1/4" TRS balanced)
- I want to take channel 3 and 4 and feed Input B. (which are 1/4" TRS balanced)
- I want to take channels 5,6,7,8 and feed Input 1 and Input 2 - which take stereo 1/4" TRS (Unbalanced).

Am totally stuck on figuring out:

(a) What type of DB25 snake do I buy.

(b) What adapters do I then need to make the above work!

Thanks in advance.
