DB25 Connectors
The DIRECT OUTS on the back of the Onyx 80 Series
provide balanced direct outputs for all the mono chan-
nels on female DB25 connectors. These connectors are
pin-for-pin compatible with the analog (not TDIF) DB25
connectors found on TASCAM DTRS recorders, which has
become an industry standard for many professional audio
manufacturers. They are also the same pinout as the ana-
log cards for the Mackie D8B and hard disk recorders.

Several companies make DB25-to-DB25 cables specifi -
cally for audio, with proper shielding to reduce crosstalk
and noise.
DB25 cables that break out to XLR, 1/4" TRS, or TT
connectors for connecting to other mixers or audio gear
are also readily available. See your Mackie dealer for
details.
