Internal Ports
The picture on the right
shows the board of the
MARC 4 DIGI with its
internal ports.
For the processing of
audio signals of your
CD-ROM drive you can
either use an analog
input or an electrical
digital input.
For information which
kind of ports your CD-
ROM drive provides,
please refer to the
appropriate manual.
5.3. SyncBus
Connector
If you use several MARC cards or other soundcards developed by
Marian, such as Siena, Prodif 96 PRO or Prodif Plus, you connect the
SyncBus ports of the individual cards using a cable which is available
as accessory. You can purchase a SyncBus cable from Media
Assistance, tel49 7946 94 16 80.
The SyncBus of your MARC 4 DIGI has two jobs: on one side it
synchronizes the digital clock and ensures that several cards run
synchronously when they are operated parallel. On the other side it
takes care of the concurrent and sample-accurate starting and stopping
of several internal audio devices. Audio devices in this sense means
either cards with SyncBus or even inputs and outputs of one and the
same card.
For details on the settings see chapter 6.4.1.
