USB output on 2x4HD: Record or process further??

[triode_al]

I READ THIS ON THE 2X4HD:

. Streaming the processed audio (four output channels) from the miniDSP 2x4 HD to the computer.

What can be done with this stream?
It is 4 channel. Is it an exact copy?
Can I then run it to my favourate DAC? Such as a USB/TDA1541 unit?
Can the computer route this to a second USB output?

Sorry many newbie questions

The four outputs on the 2x4HD are analog, not USB.

Dave,
Sorry my quote was not complete:
the USB can be used as output and then contains [the] four channels.
For streaming back. Back to a computer, so from a sampled input from the two RCA inputs.

My question then is, : does this digital stream output coexist with the 4ch analog RCA output
Can this output be recorded in a computer? (then I can make a RIAA filter . . . .) A new market is born.

I guess I'm not familiar with that capability of the 2x4HD unit.

need to check the manual, but guessing the 2x4HD, like all other products in the range will have I2S headers to hook up your favourite effects unit to. If not there are other products they do that will meet your requirements.
