Apollo 16 mkII Hardware Manual
Typical Setup
This diagram illustrates a basic Apollo 16 system. In this example, only analog devices
are connected; digital I/O is not used.
Key points for this example:
• Either Thunderbolt port can be used for the host computer connection
• The Monitor outputs are connected to powered monitors (or an amp+speaker system)
• DB25 audio snakes are used for connections to line-level audio gear
• Although this example uses XLR connectors, DB25 snakes that terminate to XLR,
TRS, or other DB25 connectors can be used
