Rear Panel/Connections General Advice

The MixDream XP enclosure is EMC-safe and effectively shielded against HF interference. Nonetheless, you should carefully consider where you place the unit to avoid electrical disturbances.

The MixDream XP and all devices to be connected should be turned off before connections are made. Always turn volume down or mute your speakers when disconnecting or repatching audio cables to avoid damage to your speakers and ears.

The following graph shows the correct wiring for connecting unbalanced signals to the balanced XLR I/O connectors:

Input Channels

The MixDream XP has 16 electronically balanced inputs that are connected over two DB 25 connectors. Readily configured cascade cables from XLR or 1/4 inch TRS to DB 25 are available in many audio stores.

Usually the analog outputs of a D/A converter that transmit the summing tracks from the DAW are connected here. These connectors conform to the Tascam standard with pin layout as pictured below:
