(3) Thunderbolt 3 Ports

Connect a Thunderbolt cable (not included) between one of these ports and the
Thunderbolt 3 port on the Mac host computer that is running the UAD‑2 Live Rack
software application. The HOST indicator on the front panel is lit when the connection is
established.
Either port can be used for the host computer connection. The other port remains
available for Thunderbolt 3 daisy‑chain connections, for example additional UAD‑2 Live
Rack units or the Apple Thunderbolt 3 to Gigabit Ethernet Adapter.
Note: Although Thunderbolt 3 always uses USB-C connectors, not all USB-C
computer ports are Thunderbolt 3 ports.

(4) Word Clock Out

This BNC connector transmits a standard (1x) word clock when UAD‑2 Live Rack is set
to use its internal clock. The clock rate sent by this port matches the current system
sample rate, as specified in the Hardware tab within the UAD‑2 Live Rack software
application.
When UAD‑2 Live Rack is set to use external word clock as its clock, UAD‑2 Live Rack
is a word clock slave. If the incoming external word clock is within ±0.5% of a supported
sample rate (44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz), Word Clock Out will mirror Word
Clock In with a slight phase delay of about 40 nanoseconds.
