Need help with a set up

Gimenez · 06-29-2008, 01:57 PM

Hi guys I am about to buy a 1080p TV to replace my 22 inch Samsung. I got a problem that I want to solve. This TV is for my little studio that I currently have. My sound card is a Presonus Firebox FireWire. Its a basic recording card but I only use it to output sound to my HS-80 Yamaha Sound Monitors. I am going to hook everything up to this TV, the PC, a PS3, and cable TV. I want to be able to take audio from the TV and forward it to my computer so it can output it to the studio sound monitors (speakers).

Is there any way I can do this?

REPEAT: I want to take the audio from the TV and forward it to the computer so I can hear the sound on the monitors.

are these built in speakers or external plug in ones...because if the are external couldn't you just by-pass the computer entirely?

if your TV has audio out and your sound card has aux in (not Mic in ) you can do it, but it's going to be in stereo.
