3.1 Recordings with the MAGICIAN

When you insert the MAGICIAN between your mixing console and multi-track recorder, the sound modifica-

tions produced by this device will be directly recorded on tape or hard-disk. For this purpose, connect the tape

sends (subgroup outputs) of the mixing console with the inputs on the MAGICIAN, then connect the unit’s

outputs to the analog inputs on your multi-track recorder. As mixing consoles generally have balanced tape

sends and returns, we recommend that you wire the MAGICIAN in a balanced configuration.

+

Some digital multi-track recorders have multi-pin connectors for balanced connection (i.e. to

wire them in a balanced configuration you need an adapter). Crosstalk between the channels

is therefore higher than in unbalanced configurations. In such a case, it will be wise to use

long, balanced cables between mixing console and MAGICIAN, and short, unbalanced cables

between MAGICIAN and digital multi-track recorder, so as to ensure proper signal separation

between the single channels.

3.2 Application in mixdown

Another possibility is to insert the MAGICIAN in the subgroups of the mixing console (if available). Depending

on the wiring of the inserts on the console, you either need a special 6.3 mm stereo jack insert cable that is

routed to two mono jacks (send & return), or two separate cables for the send and return path. Connect the

insert sends of the subgroups to the inputs on the MAGICIAN, and the insert returns to the outputs.
