Connecting External Devices
Using an optical cable for the MADI connection enables long-distance transmission. In situations such as when the recording
room is located away from the Front of House or you are transmitting audio from a hall/stadium to an outside broadcasting van
or the like, use optical cables.
* Some MADI recorders require dedicated MADI interfaces for connection with external equipment. Check owner’s manual of your MADI recorder
before connection.

* Set the V-Mixer as REAC master device by setting its REAC SETUP to [FOH], the digital snake as REAC slave device, and the S-MADI as REAC split
device.
