Rear Panel Connectors

IEEE 1394 ports (3) (IEEE 1394) The 1394 high speed communication protocol allows that any port

from any module can be connected to any port on any other module and that the

cables can “star” from one device, or can be daisy chained from device to device. The

recommended 1394 cable configuration for the R-1 Audio Deck is to connect a cable

from any of the three ports on the Audio Deck to any of the three ports on the Pilot

computer.

Word In (BNC) May be connected to a Word Clock source if Word Clock is the master

Sample Rate clock for the R-1 system. In the standard R-1 configuration where the

Studio Hub is a short distance from the deck, AES is recommended for synchronizing

the Audio Deck. In configurations where the Studio Hub is located remotely, the

Word Clock output from the Studio Hub may be used as the master Sample Rate clock,

and is then provided to this Audio Deck input.

Word Out (BNC) May be connected to the Word Clock input of a second chained Audio

Deck in a multi-deck R-1 system. When an external Word clock input is present this

connector provides a regenerated version of the input signal. When no external

Sample Rate source is detected this connector outputs the internally generated clock

signal. This later configuration, where the Audio Deck is the clock master, is not a

recommended mode.

AES In (XLR Female) Connected to one of the Studio Hub’s AES Sync Outputs in the

standard configuration. This is the recommended clock for the Audio Deck where the

Studio Hub is a short distance away.

MADI In (BNC) In the standard configuration this is connected to the Studio Hub MADI

output #1.

MADI Out 1 (BNC) Connected to the Studio Hub MADI #2 input in the standard

configuration. From 1 to 24 channels represents Audio Decks main channels of disk

playback and input monitoring. Channels 25 and 26, as well as 27 and 28 each

contain stereo monitor mixes, but the 25/26 pair are reduced in signal strength by –

12 dB.

MADI Out 2 (BNC) Same as MADI Out 1. Provided as a built-in Mult. Can be used with

MADI metering.
