hello. i've recently acquired a Mackie 1202 vlz micro mixer and am using it with mbox. would there be any signal degradation if if plugin all of my inserts (mpc2000xl, guitar, bass) into the Mackie and then attach the stereo outs of the Mackie into the analog inserts in the mbox? if i am recording into pro tools would it be better to plug straight into the mbox and leave the Mackie out of the picture? pls. help! thanks.
