Playing 48khz audio in Logic, using MacAV, How can I play 48hz audio withoutXsoundcard Options

[melta]

Hi
I recently purchased a G4 laptop and a Motu 828 soundcard. I am using OS9.2 and Logic Platinum 4.7.3. Using ASIO +828 at home no probs. However to my immense frustration when using just MacAv (whilst on the move without 828) Logic won't play 48khz audio via the Mac AV sound output. Does anyone know how to get round this?
Logic can sample rate convert, a laborious task. Is this a destructive process, anyone know about Logics conversion process? Any ways of virtually (non-destructive) ways of reducing to 44khz, or batch covertion?

Now the suns com'n out this is drivn me crazy, let alone traveling, please help!!

Okay so I should have phoned emajic first..
Apparently its tuff doo doo!
The Mac engin is 16 bit 44kHz and thats all it'll do. OSX should have ways round this, but Logic won't run on OSX for a while yet..
As for smaple rate conversion it is destructive.
So unless anyones gotta better suggestions, its 48Khz studio or 44khz sun for me

long winded and a pain, but if you make copies of all the audio you plan to work with while out and about you can rate convert the copies while leaving the originals intact, thus enabling you to work out in the sun.
it does mean a loss in quality, but it depends on the end use of the project as to whether that matters too much at this point.
you could look at it as pre-production work if you like, once youve created a masterpiece at 44.1 you should be able to use the automation and other song info to do the same job to your 48k files, make copious notes tho!
the genius stroke will always be the one you cant port across!
send me some sunshine!
