ADAT Bridge I/O22
Setup E: Synchronizing Pro Tools and ADAT using an
Opcode Studio 64XTC
Opcode’s Studio 64 XTC has Word & Super-
clock outs, ADAT Sync out and SMPTE in
and out. Because the 64XTC has only 256x
& ADAT Sync Outs, it must always be the
clock master in a Pro Tools system. The fol-
lowing setup allows you to synchronize
your system with Pro Tools being the posi-
tional/transport master.
To connect this setup:
1 Connect the ADAT Sync Out from the
64XTC to the Sync In on your primary
ADAT.
2 Connect the Studio 64XTC’s 256x Clock
Out to the Slave Clock (256x) In of your
primary audio interface (ADAT Bridge I/O
or other). If you have multiple audio inter-
faces, daisy-chain the Slave Clock signal as
described previously.
3 Make sure your 64XTC’s serial cable is
correctly connected to your CPU.
☞ For additional instructions for this set up,
see “Basic Settings” on page 26 and “Setup
E: Configuring Pro Tools and ADAT sync with an
Opcode 64XTC” on page 49.
