Connecting Loop Sync

If you are using two (or more) Pro Tools audio interfaces or a SYNC peripheral, Loop Sync must be
connected to maintain proper clock among the devices. For an example of connecting multiple
Pro Tools|HD audio interfaces, see Figure 2 below.

To make Loop Sync connections:

1

Connect (daisy-chain) the Loop Sync Out of each interface to the Loop Sync In of the next interface

with the BNC cables included with your audio interface.

2

Connect the Loop Sync Out of the last interface to the Loop Sync In of the primary interface or

SYNC peripheral.
