Testing The System - Solid State Logic Alpha-LinK MX 4-16 Setup Manual

Testing the system

If you have correctly followed this step by step example, and connected your external sound sources and monitoring
system, you should now be able to use 40 Analogue and 24 AES/EBU inputs and outputs to record and play back audio
to/from your DAW.
If you open an existing project/session in your DAW software, ensure that the project/session sample rate is 48 kHz.
If needed, please refer to your DAW manual to learn how to select inputs and outputs.
Alternatively, chapter 21 of the the MadiXtreme Reference Guide includes short, step by step Nuendo, Sonar, Samplitude
and Logic Pro recording setup examples.
In your DAW software:
MadiXtreme inputs 1 to 24 receive signals from the AES/EBU inputs of the Alpha-Link MADI-SX.
MadiXtreme outputs 1 to 24 transmit signals to the AES/EBU outputs of the Alpha-Link MADI-SX.
MadiXtreme inputs 25 to 48 receive signals from the Analogue inputs of the Alpha-Link MADI-SX.
MadiXtreme outputs 25 to 48 transmit signals to the Analogue outputs of the Alpha-Link MADI-SX.
MadiXtreme inputs 49 to 64 receive signals from the Analogue inputs of the Alpha-Link MX 16-4.
MadiXtreme outputs 49 to 64 transmit signals to the Analogue outputs of the Alpha-Link MX 4-16.
If you wish to use the headphones output on the front of the Alpha-Link to listen to a test signal, please note
that it duplicates Analogue outputs 23 and 24 of the Alpha-Link MADI-SX. In your DAW, select MadiXtreme
outputs 47-48 to send signals to the headphones output. Also, in order to protect your ears, turn down the
volume in the DAW before putting the headphones on, and only increase it slowly up to a comfortable level as
you listen to the headphones.
