- Page 3 Thank you for adding the Remote 48 to your line of Mackie equipment. If you’re familiar with the HDR24/96, you probably already know what most of this remote control does, but just in case, this guide will explain all those other buttons ... some of which are new or a little different from the Remote 24 and HDR24/96 front panel.
- Page 4 The Remote 48 is a professional remote controller for both the Mackie HDR24/96 and MDR24/96. It is used to control one or more HDR24/96 recorders. The Remote 48 offers all the functionality of the HDR24/96 front panel, along with several other features not found on the HDR24/96 or Remote 24, including: •...
- Page 5 The Remote 48 can be placed on any stable work surface, but for optimal support we recommend the Quik-Lok QL-406 stand. The QL-406 is a roll-around remote stand with height and tilt adjustment made specifically for the Remote 48. See www.quiklok.com...
- Page 6 Setting up the Remote 48 is as easy as plugging in a telephone: 1. Plug the 25-foot remote cable (supplied with your unit) into the TO HDR jack on the back of the Remote 48, and the other end into the REMOTE jack on the back of the HDR24/96.
- Page 7 Many of the features, functions, and procedures of the Remote 48 mirror those of the HDR24/96 and Remote 24, and are therefore already defined in the HDR24/96 and Remote 24 user’s manuals. Therefore keep your HDR24/96 Quick Start Guide, HDR24/96 Technical Reference Manual, and Remote 24 User Guide on hand for reference.
- Page 8 In addition to the transport locate point, there are four numbered LOCATE points to give you quick access to frequently used locations in your Project.

- Page 11 Remote 48, see the HDR24/96 Technical Reference Manual or Quick- Start Guide. The DECK 2 button toggles Remote 48 control of the LCD display, Rates display, and System Control buttons between the Master and Slave HDR24/96. The Remote 48 controls the Master HDR24/96 when the Deck 2 LED is off, and the Slave HDR24/96 when the Deck 2 LED is blinking.
- Page 12 The TAPE TIME display always shows the current position of the HDR24/96 “play head” (Current Time). It is the same as the Current Time displays on the HDR24/96 front panel and GUI. The LOCATE TIME displays the time that the Transport will locate to when the LOCATE button is pressed, and corresponds to the LOCATE TIME display in the GUI...
- Page 13 Locate Time value. You do not need to type all 8 digits each time you enter a time; the Remote 48 fills-in the blanks with zeros after time entry is terminated. The rightmost dot in LOCATE TIME display flashes when time entry is active.

Cues are Locate points (not to be confused with Locates 1-4) that can be set anywhere in the Project. Up to 999 Cues can be stored and recalled from the Remote 48 (see STORE and RECALL). CAPTURE copies the value of Tape Time into Locate Time. - Page 15 Store is executed or canceled.
