Chapter 2: Installation and Configuration 9
Using Legacy Audio Interfaces with
Pro Tools|HD
If you are using a Pro Tools|HD system that in-
cludes a legacy audio interface (an 888|24,
882|20, 1622, or ADAT Bridge audio interface),
you will need to connect the Clock output of the
HD system to the Slave Clock Input of the legacy
interface.
To connect a legacy audio interface to an
HD-series system with the SYNC HD:
1
Connect the SYNC HD to the HD-series sys-
tem with Loop Sync as described in the previous
steps.
2
Using a BNC cable, connect the Ext Clock Out
of your primary HD-series interface to the Slave
Clock In of your first legacy interface.
3
If you are connecting multiple legacy inter-
faces, daisy-chain their Slave Clock connections
by connecting the Slave Clock Out of the first
interface to the Slave Clock In of the next inter-
face.
MachineControl
On MachineControl-enabled Pro Tools systems,
the SYNC HD supports limited Serial Deck Con-
trol only.
Serial Deck Control Mode
(Non-Linear Decks Only)
Limited Serial Deck Control mode is available
through a connection to the 9-pin ports on the
SYNC HD. For full Serial Deck Control, a direct
serial connection to the host computer is re-
quired. See the MachineControl Guide for more
information.
To connect an external deck to SYNC HD:
‹
Connect a standard 9-pin cable from one of
the 9-pin Out ports on the SYNC HD to the
9-pin connector of the external deck.
As many as two decks can be connected to the
two 9-pin Out ports on the SYNC HD. You can
control one deck at a time, and switch between
them from within Pro Tools. These ports on the
SYNC HD support all MachineControl modes
except 9-Pin Remote (Deck Emulation) mode.
Remote 9-Pin Deck Emulation
Mode
Remote 9-Pin Deck Emulation mode requires a
direct serial connection to the host computer.
See the MachineControl Guide for more infor-
mation.
Clock for SYNC I/O, a 96 I/O, and an 888|24 I/O

connections and operation, refer to the
MachineControl Guide.
Due to performance limitations, this
configuration should be used primarily
with non-linear decks.
