Connecting External Devices
This sets up a digital snake as a stage unit and connects, via the S-MADI, a digital mixer equipped with MADI input and output.
(This performs mutual MADI and REAC conversion.)
Connect the stage unit (in this figure, an S-4000S-3208) to the REAC MAIN connector on the S-MADI.
* Operations such as adjusting the gain on the digital snake can be accomplished using a dedicated remote controller (S-4000R) connected to the
S-MADI or using dedicated remote-control software (S-4000 RCS).
* You cannot set Digital Snake’s REAC Mode to Master when it is used in connection with S-MADI.

When making connections described here, set the modes and switches as shown below.

* When CLOCK SOURCE is set to [MADI] or [WORD CLOCK], the S-MADI is automatically set to be the REAC master device. Set the digital snake as
REAC slave device.
* Selecting [MADI] or [WORD CLOCK] as CLOCK SOURCE automatically sets the sampling rate for the S-MADI to match the sampling rate being input.
* When the MADI device is connected using an optical cable, set the INPUT switch to [OPTICAL].
* Set CH MODE to correspond to the mode of the connected MADI device.
