2.1.2 Two SD9s Sharing One MADI Connected Rack ................

In this example, either one of the SD9s can act as analogue gain controller of the MADI connected rack according to which one is
connected to the Full Connect port on the Little Red Box. The other SD9 which is connected to the Receive Only port on the Little Red
Box will receive all the D-Rack input signals but have no control of the analogue gains. This Receive Only console can have Gain Tracking
switched on for each shared input signal's channel and then any analogue gain change made by the master console will be automatically
compensated by the digital trim on the Receive Only console's channels.
The SD9 with Full Control should be Audio Sync Master and the other SD9 should be set to external Audio Sync from the incoming CAT5
port from the Little Red Box.
Please see section 1.1.5 Full Connect and Receive Only for Rack Sharing for details of other console settings.
