3.3.2 Using multiple DigiMax D8 with the FireStudio LightPipe

The DigiMax D8 is a great low cost solution to expand your FireStudio LightPipe for live or mobile
recordings where a large number of simultaneous inputs are needed and two track output is enough for
monitoring. To clock more than one DigiMax D8 to the same external sync you will need a BNC T-Connector
for each DigiMax D8 you are connecting to your system. This is called

parallel clock distribution

and will

allow word clock to be sent to and relayed from each DigiMax D8 in the chain. The last device in the chain
will need to have a BNC terminator attached to the other side of the T-connection. All the devices between
the master clock and the last device in the chain are un-terminated so as not to load the signal down.
