23.3 Line - Headphones
HDSPe MADI FX offers a hi-quality analog monitor output. The short circuit protected stereo
line output provides high output level, low impedance, and is available via a 6.3 mm (1/4") TRS
jack. Therefore it is also suitable for a direct use with headphones.
The analog output is directly driven from the channels 3/4. Its output volume is controlled by the
hardware output faders of channel 3/4 in TotalMix. Additionally the analog output can play back
any input or playback signal using TotalMix.
The analog output does not include
speaker protection. When switching
the computer on and off, noise may
occur at the analog outputs.
In case the output should operate as
line out, an adapter TRS plug to RCA
phono plugs, or TRS plug to TS plugs
is required.
The pin assignment follows inter-
national standards. The left channel is
connected to the tip, the right channel
to the ring of the TRS jack/plug.
23.4 MIDI
The HDSPe MADI FX offers one MIDI I/O via 5-pin DIN connectors. The MIDI port is added to
the system by the driver. Using MIDI capable software, the port can be accessed under the
name
MADI MIDI
. Using more than one HDSPe MADI FX, a consecutive number is added to
the port name, like
MADI MIDI In 1 (2)
etc.
The three software-only MIDI ports receive and transmit MIDI data via MADI. This allows for a
direct communication between systems with HDSPe MADI FX cards. Additionally MIDI data can
be transmitted from/to other RME devices with MADI ports, without any additional line or cabling
between computer (MADI card) and units.
The MIDI ports support multi-client operation. A MIDI input signal can be received from several
programs at the same time. Even the MIDI outputs can be used by multiple programs simulta-
neously. However, due to the limited bandwidth of MIDI, this kind of application will often show
various problems.
