Hi Luca – if you have a PC you should try the ROUTING utility, available on the H8000 support page. Otherwise ..

Luca:

-Is it possible to assign an analog input ( pre machine A/B) to a firewire output ?

Not directly. You would have to load a "Thru" preset in A or B and then use it to feed the FW output. Or, connect an unused input to an unused output (using Vsig) and use that to give you the Thru connection.

Luca:

-Is it possible to have a firewire signal source feed the machine A/B ?

Yes. You must first connect the FW input to one of the "Main Inputs" on the [inputs] screen. Then you can connect that to the effect (dsp A or B) input.

Luca:

-It is possible to assign a firewire input to a physical analog output ?

Not directly. You would have to load a "Thru" preset in A or B and then
use it to feed the FW output.

I apologize for the complexity. The unit is most easily used with a computer as an external effects unit, which sends and receives audio via FireWire. You can certainly do other things, but it requires more understanding.
