Hi Jim,

I don't think this is off-topic at all.

Check that the input of the track you are recording to in Logic is set 
to 'digital in', rather than analog in. If you click on 'input' on the 
channel strip, you should get to choose your spdif as an input.

When the track is armed, do you get levels on Logic's meters?

Sounds to me like it's recording the (silent) analog ins, which is why 
you're getting an empty file.
