Balanced Line Outputs; Line - Headphones - RME Audio MADIface XT User Manual

There are good reasons for both of these alternatives. Thanks to the flexible threshold setting
and easy manual correction of set values, the MADIface is fit for all applications.
AutoSet can be activated in CHANNEL: a push on encoder 1 and 2 activates AutoSet. The label
AS in the display changes from light gray to black.
To avoid shifts in panorama AutoSet should work ganged with related channels, so that gain
changes of one channel are also applied to the other one. For using ganged AutoSet the input
channels Mic1/2 have to be set to Stereo mode in TotalMix FX.
As soon as AutoSet reduces the gain the label AS, shown in the front display, changes its color
from black to blue.

20.4 Balanced Line Outputs

The short circuit protected, low impedance line outputs of channels 1 and 2 use male XLR jacks
on the back of the unit. The maximum balanced output level is +15 dBu.
The electronic driver circuit of the XLR outputs does not operate servo-balanced! When
connecting unbalanced equipment, make sure pin 3 of the XLR output is not connected. A
connection to ground will cause higher THD (distortion)!
When used unbalanced the maximum output level is 6 dB lower (+9 dBu).

20.5 Line - Headphones

MADIface XT offers a hi-quality analog monitor output. The short circuit protected stereo line
output provides high output level, low impedance, and is available via a 6.3 mm (1/4") TRS jack.
Therefore it is also suitable for a direct use with headphones.
The analog output is directly driven from the channels 3/4. Its output volume is controlled by the
hardware output faders of channel 3/4 in TotalMix. Additionally the analog output can play back
any input or playback signal using TotalMix.
The analog output does not include
speaker protection. When switching
the computer on and off, noise may
occur at the analog outputs.
In case the output should operate as
line out, an adapter TRS plug to RCA
phono plugs, or TRS plug to TS plugs
is required.
The pin assignment
international standards. The left chan-
nel is connected to the tip, the right
channel to the ring of the TRS
jack/plug.
