MixDream XP
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:
