MASTER/SLAVE OPERATION
The Klark Teknik Pro MIDI Master/Slave system allows up to 65 DN3600 and DN3601
units to be operated, either individually or together, from the front panel of one DN3600.
The system is simple to connect, simple to operate and protects itself from the dangers of
unreliable power supply and damaged connections.
Once programmed, the equaliser program memories resident in the slaves may be selected via
ordinary MIDI program change commands without the need for a DN3600 master unit. This
provides an economical way of managing a large installation as the slave system is both cost
effective and secure from inadvertent tampering.
Master/Slave configuration is automatic when two or more DN3600 and/or DN3601 units are
linked in a closed loop via their Pro MIDI interfaces - MIDI OUT to MIDI IN.
Note: The loop must be closed. Each MIDI OUT must be connected to the next MIDI IN. If
MIDI program change messages from some other device are to be injected onto the Klark Teknik
loop, this must be done via a MIDI MERGE unit.
