MADI Audio I/O
The MX4 features two MADI input connectors and
two MADI output connectors.
Pull out the protective plugs from the MADI ports on the MX4 and Alpha-Link(s) to gain access to the connectors:
Use multimode optical fibre cables to connect MX4’s MADI input and output port(s) to the XLogic Alpha-Link(s)’s MADI output
and input ports respectively (or to any other MADI Device).
The MADI connectors are presented as an adjacent input/output pair (MADI head). There are no distinctive marks on the
backplate of the card to identify which of the pair is the input and which is the output.
Standard MADI cables come as a pair and the SC connectors on the cables are keyed so that they can only fit one way into the
MADI head.
The cable’s input and output connectors will therefore always connect correctly to the corresponding connector of the MADI
head.
However, there are cases where you may want to use a single cable (for instance, if you only want to use the MADI output). In
this case, please remember that for each MADI head, the input connector is located closest to the BNC WordClock connector.
Note also that MADI B is the one closest to the BNC.
If you want to connect the MX4 to a MADI Device via Coaxial BNC Cable, you will need the SSL MADI Opti-Coax Converter.
