The MicroDock connects to the E-MU 02 CardBus card via the EDI cable.

The MicroDock is
completely “hot
pluggable”— It’s OK to
plug or unplug the
MicroDock while the
computer is turned on.
It’s a good idea to
mute MicroDock inputs 2
in the PatchMix DSP
mixer when nothing is
plugged in, since the
turntable preamp has a
very high gain (60dB)
and could contribute
extra noise to your mix/
monitor bus.
The MicroDock provides (4) balanced analog inputs, (2) microphone preamp inputs,
(6) balanced line-level analog outputs, (3) stereo 1/8” outputs for connecting powered
computer speakers, (2) MIDI inputs, (2) MIDI outputs, a stereo headphone output, and
a RIAA equalized turntable preamp section which is “normalled” into line input 2L and
2R, 8 channels of ADAT digital input/output, and stereo S/PDIF digital input/output.
The inputs are configured as follows:
The outputs are configured as:
(2)
mono microphone/line inputs (2 inputs)
(2)
stereo pairs of line level inputs (4 inputs)
(1)
stereo pair of S/PDIF/AES digital inputs (2 inputs)
(4)
stereo pairs of ADAT channels on the ADAT optical input (8 inputs)
(1)
RIAA equalized turntable preamp input allows you to connect a turntable without using
an expensive external preamp.
Note: These inputs are automatically disconnected
when plugs are inserted into inputs 2L & 2R.
(2)
MIDI input ports using the supplied breakout cable
(3)
stereo pairs of line level outputs
(1)
stereo pair driving a stereo headphone jack
(Share the same routing as Line Outs 1L/1R)
(1)
stereo pair of S/PDIF/AES digital outputs
(4)
stereo pairs of ADAT channels on the ADAT optical output
(3)
stereo 1/8” computer speaker outputs. These outputs carry the same signals as the 3
stereo line level outputs and are provided as a convenience for connecting computer or
powered speaker systems.
(2)
MIDI output ports using the supplied breakout cable
