Line Level
Analog
Outputs
Six balanced 24-bit, line-level, analog outputs are provided (Stereo 1-3). Output pair 1 is
designated as the Monitor Output and is normally fed by the monitor output of the PatchMix DSP
mixer application. All the analog outputs can be freely assigned in the mixer application. Special
anti-pop circuitry mutes the analog outputs when power is turned on or off.
Like the analog line inputs, either TRS balanced or TS unbalanced cables can be used.
Balanced cables provide better noise immunity and +6dB higher signal level, but standard mono
instrument cables also work well.
The output line level can be set to accommodate the consumer -10dBV standard, or the pro audio
+4 dBu standard in the I/O screen of the Session Settings dialog box.
Turntable
Inputs &
Ground Lug
The RCA turntable inputs feed an RIAA equalized phono preamp designed to accept moving
magnet type phono cartridges. The turntable inputs share line level inputs 2L and 2R. Inserting a
plug into Line Input 2 disconnects the phono preamp from that channel. Connect the ground lead
from your turntable to the turntable ground lug to prevent hum.
MIDI 1& 2
In/Out
Attach the supplied MIDI Breakout cable to the MIDI Port connector on the rear of the MicroDock.
MIDI input and output ports allow you to interface any type of MIDI equipment such as keyboards,
effect units, drum or guitar controllers. The MIDI drivers were installed when you installed your
Patchmix DSP software and the MIDI ports will appear in your system control panel under “Sounds
and Audio Devices”.
Alternate
Outputs
These stereo mini-phone (3.5mm) jacks duplicate the line level outputs 1-3. These line level
outputs are designed for easy interface to powered computer speakers.
EDI Connector
Connects the MicroDock to the E-MU 02 CardBus card using CAT 5e type computer cable. The
cable supplied with the MicroDock is specially shielded to prevent unwanted RF emissions.
