Additionally, you should make sure that the Word Clock input to be con-
nected to the MC-6’s output have a 75 Ω terminating resistor! Most Word
Clock inputs allow for enabling/disabling the termination with a so-called
»termination-switch«, which may be located on the outside or inside of the
device.
For devices which have no termination of the Word Clock input, e.g. RME
Hammerfall with Word Clock i/o, Alesis BRC or M-Audio ProFire Light-
bridge, you can use an additional BNC-T piece to terminate the input. Plug
the T piece with its center connector into the input of the receiving device.
Then, connect the cable coming from the MC-6’s Word Clock output to one
of the lateral connectors, and the other connector of the BNC-T piece to a
75 Ω resistor forming the BNC termination.
Basically, you should avoid »looping through« Word Clock leads by means
of passive BNC-T pieces to preserve the signal quality, as level drops will be
the result. If there is no other way to wire your set-up, please make sure
that all Word Clock inputs (except for the last device in the chain) have
their terminations disabled! In a serial Word Clock chain only the last clock
input should have a termination! Never connect more than three devices in
series to one output!
