The Audiodock - E-Mu 1212M Owner's Manual

The AudioDock

The AudioDock connects to the E-MU 1010 PCI card via the EDI cable.
The AudioDock provides (6) balanced analog inputs, a pair of microphone preamp
inputs, (8) balanced line-level analog outputs, (4) 1/8" outputs for connecting powered
computer speakers, (2) MIDI inputs, (2) MIDI outputs, one optical S/PDIF output, a
headphone amp, and a RIAA equalized turntable preamp section which is "normalled"
into line input 3L and 3R.
The inputs are configured as follows:
(2) mono microphone/line inputs
(3) stereo pairs of line level inputs (6 inputs)
(1) RIAA equalized turntable preamp input allows you to connect a turntable without using
an expensive external preamp.
Note: These inputs are automatically disconnected when plugs are inserted into
inputs 3L & 3R since the A/D converters are shared between the turntable inputs.
(2) MIDI input ports
The outputs are configured as:
(4) stereo pairs of line level outputs
(1) stereo pair driving a stereo headphone jack (the provided cable allows 2 stereo outputs)
(1) optical S/PDIF output (stereo).
(4) stereo 1/8" computer speaker outputs. These outputs carry the same signals as the 4
stereo line level outputs and are provided as a convenience for connecting computer
speaker systems.
(2) MIDI output ports

The AudioDock
f The AudioDock is
completely "hot
pluggable"— It' s OK to
plug or unplug the
AudioDock while the
computer is turned on.
It' s a good idea to
mute AudioDock inputs 3
in the PatchMix DSP
mixer when nothing is
plugged in, since the
turntable preamp has a
very high gain (60dB)
and could contribute
extra noise to your mix/
monitor bus.
