nope. the hammerfall is configured to receive S/PDIF from one of 3 possible sources: the coaxial connector, ADAT1 or the internal pins (for digital cd output). it cannot receive S/PDIF from two sources at once. if you want to do this, i think you will need a format converter to convert s/pdif to adat, and then use any card that handles at least one adat connector (8 channels). --p
