alongside a 500R8/500ADAT and N22/N22H breakout box:
1. Connect mains power into the external PSU supplied in Camden EC2’s packaging and
connect the Power Connector into Camden EC2’s Power Inlet [11].
2. Connect Camden EC2’s C.A.S.T. Output [9] to a C.A.S.T. Input on 500R8/500ADAT using a
shielded Cat 5e, Cat 6, or Cat 7 cable.
3. Connect N22 or N22H’s C.A.S.T. Output to Camden EC2’s C.A.S.T. Input [1] using a
shielded Cat 5e, Cat 6, or Cat 7 cable.
4. Power On Camden EC2, followed by 500R8/500ADAT and other downstream
equipment.
5. On Camden EC2, set the rear panel source switches for Preamp channels [2] into its
down position to enable the C.A.S.T. Input connection to be fed into it’s preamp
Now, connect Mic/Line sources to either of N22’s inputs, apply Gain and your desired Mojo
setting on Camden EC2, and now the preamp signal will be sent out from Camden EC2 and
directly into 500R8’s slots ready for further processing and recording.
At the same time, the Aux Mix created on 500R8/500ADAT is sent down C.A.S.T., into Camden
EC2 and into the connected N22/N22H. The Aux mix can also be monitored using Camden
EC2’s Aux 1/Aux 2 Headphone outputs as well as the connected N22/N22H.
