Remote 48 Introduction The Remote 48 is a professional remote controller for both the Mackie HDR24/96 and MDR24/96. It is used to control one or more HDR24/96 recorders.
Mount on Stand (Optional) The Remote 48 can be placed on any stable work surface, but for optimal support we recommend the Quik-Lok QL-406 stand. The QL-406 is a roll-around remote stand with height and tilt adjustment made specifically for the Remote 48. See www.quiklok.com for specifications. Quik-Lok QL-406 User’s Guide Installation Mount on Mic Stand (Optional) When mounting the Remote 48 on a standard 5/8” thread mic stand, we recommend the Omnimount 50-ST mounting plate and 5000-MA stand adaptor.
Remote 48 Plug It In Setting up the Remote 48 is as easy as plugging in a telephone: 1. Plug the 25-foot remote cable (supplied with your unit) into the TO HDR jack on the back of the Remote 48, and the other end into the REMOTE jack on the back of the HDR24/96. 2. Plug the supplied IEC power cable into the power jack on the back of the Remote 48. Note: Power-up the Remote 48 before powering the HDR 24/96 .
Many of the features, functions, and procedures of the Remote 48 mirror those of the HDR24/96 and Remote 24, and are therefore already defined in the HDR24/96 and Remote 24 user’s manuals. Therefore keep your HDR24/96 Quick Start Guide, HDR24/96 Technical Reference Manual, and Remote 24 User Guide on hand for reference. Transport Stop STOP brings the “tape” to an immediate halt. STOP also punches out of record and cancels master record standby.
Remote 48 Numbered Locates In addition to the transport locate point, there are four numbered LOCATE points to give you quick access to frequently used locations in your Project. Press one of the four numbered LOCATE buttons to jump to a Locate point. Numbered Locates are set using the store function (see AUTOLOCATOR). 2 1 LOCATE 3 4 LOCATE Shuttle and Jog Both shuttle and jog allow you to play audio both forwards and backwards at non real-time speeds.
Pre Roll PRE ROLL causes any Locate operation to jump to a time that is earlier than the stored Locate time by the amount of the Pre Roll time. For example, if you wish to locate to 00:05:00:00 and you enter a Pre Roll of 5 seconds, the transport will locate to 00:04:55:00. Pre Roll is handy for auto punching where you need to start playback a few seconds before the Punch In point. PRE ROLL Loop User’s Guide Transport Modes LOCATES 1 and 2 double as start and end points for looped playback.

The System Controls that are unique to the Remote 48 are described below. For more detail on System Controls that are common to both the HDR24/96 and Remote 48, see the HDR24/96 Technical Reference Manual or QuickStart Guide. DECK 2 EDIT DEC INC T- CODE CHASE VARI ALT CONTROL Deck 2 The DECK 2 button toggles Remote 48 control of the LCD display, Rates display, and System Control buttons between the Master and Slave HDR24/96.
Remote 48 Displays Tape Time The TAPE TIME display always shows the current position of the HDR24/96 “play head” (Current Time). It is the same as the Current Time displays on the HDR24/96 front panel and GUI. Tape Time (Current Time) Locate Time TAPE TIME The LOCATE TIME displays the time that the Transport will locate LOCATE to when the LOCATE button is TIME pressed, and corresponds to the LOCATE TIME display in the GUI Locate Time Cues List.
User’s Guide TC (Time Code) The TC LED represents the status of the HDR24/96 with respect to received time code. When T-CODE CHASE is enabled, the TC LED blinks when either no time code is present or time code is unreadable, and glows when the HDR24/96 is locked to time code. The TC LED is off when T-CODE CHASE is disabled. Clock The CLOCK LED glows when the system is locked to the selected sample clock source, and blinks when the sample clock source is not present or out of range.
Remote 48 Time Units The TIME UNITS button toggles the time units of the HDR24/96 between SMPTE and BBT display modes. TIME UNITS Edit Time The EDIT TIME button allows you to edit specific fields within the LOCATE TIME display. Pressing EDIT TIME once selects the Frames/Ticks field (depending on display mode), a second time the Seconds/Beats field, and so on, until the selection wraps back EDIT TIME around to the Frames/Ticks field.
CLEAR deletes the last value entered into the LOCATE TIME or CUE display by shifting all of the numbers right by one character. When entering time into the LOCATE TIME display, pressing CLEAR after the last character is deleted cancels the operation and restores the previous Locate Time value. CLEAR Enter The ENTER button terminates the entry of a string of numbers when entering a time in the LOCATE TIME display, and completes Time Entry, new Cue and Cue Store operations.
Remote 48 • [STORE ###… ENTER] Stores the selected time to a specific Cue. • [STORE +NEXT or –PREV (one or more times or hold to scroll), or Wheel Enter] stores the Locate Time to a cue from the Cue List. Rotating the wheel or pressing +NEXT or –PREV allows you to scroll through the Cue List in chronological order until you find the desired cue. • [STORE STORE STORE] or [CTRL+Store Store] Cancels the store operation.
• [RECALL PLAY ENTER] Recalls the time of the last Play command to Locate Time. • [RECALL ###… ENTER] Recalls a specific Cue to Locate Time. • [RECALL ENTER] Recalls the currently displayed Cue to Locate Time. This is a shortcut to save you from having to type the Cue number. User’s Guide • [RECALL PRE ROLL ENTER] Recalls the Pre Roll Time to Locate Time. • [RECALL +NEXT or –PREV (one or more times or hold to scroll), or Wheel ENTER] Recalls a Cue from the Cue List.
