(And calling them would be a very humanitarian thing to do -- they're located in the dank sub-basement of our building and they rarely get visitors. Your call just may be the one that keeps their spirits alive. ) Call Mackie Tech Support toll-free (in the U.

It was so much easier when there were only a couple of kinds of analog plugs. And what's worse, two of the digital connectors (AES/EBU & S/PDIF) look like an analog jacks but emphatically aren't. Plus one of them looks like an analog connector (SMPTE) and is basically the same as the corresponding analog plug. Even if you're a whiz at soldering, we don't recommend trying to cobble up any of the digital plug and connectors shown on this page. These cables transmit far higher frequencies than analog audio and require arcane shielding and pin polarities. If you're making digital connections to our HDR24/96, or Digital 8·Bus, we recommend biting the bullet and buying pre-made versions from your friendly Mackie dealer. Purchasing good quality cables now can prevent a lot of troubleshooting down the line. DIGITAL PRO AUDIO PLUGS AND CONNECTORS MIDI (Plug) KNOW YOUR PLUGS MIDI (Jack) Welcome Used for sending or receiving MIDI Time Code (MTC) or MIDI Machine Control (MMC) between all MDS products. [. . . ] All of our digital recorders and consoles can act as a master clock source, or as a slave to a common word clock source. SMPTE (1/4¨ TRS) Standing for Society of Motion Picture and Television Engineers (SMPTE), this is used to either send out or receive longitudinal time code (LTC) as a positional reference of your playback. SMPTE is used with standard analog 1/4" cables, even though its application is common to digital and analog devices. However, we still recommend that you buy an extremely high quality, pre-made version for sync connections, even if you're an old hand at wiring analog audio TRS's. SET IT UP, AND GO!
