soles and digital tape machines.

Legacy peripherals). This port is configured us-

9-Pin Out 1 and 2
For Digidesign MachineControl-enabled sys-
tems, these two ports connect directly to exter-
nal 9-pin transports, and provide limited Serial
Deck control capability. Only one of these ports
can be used at a time.
For best performance on Windows-based
systems, use the COM ports on the Windows
computer.
For best performance on Mac-based systems, use
a Keyspan USA28XG USB serial adapter.
