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 automati-
cally 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.

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:
