Mixdowns
After you record and mix your sessions using
your 003 family interface, you may want to mix
them down to a DAT, or other stereo 2-track re-
cording device.
Connecting an Analog Deck
Connect your recorder's inputs to the Alt
Monitor Outputs (or any other output pair) on
the back of the family interface. These outputs
are 1/4-inch jacks. You may need adapter cables
if your mixdown deck has RCA inputs.

MIDI Connections

The MIDI ports on 003 family interfaces let you
take advantage of all the MIDI features of
Pro Tools LE, including recording and editing
MIDI tracks.
If you need additional MIDI ports you can add a
compatible MIDI interface (such as a Digidesign
MIDI I/O).
To connect your MIDI device to your 003 family
interface:
Connect a standard 5-pin MIDI cable from the
1
MIDI Out port of your device to the MIDI In
port on the back panel of the 003 family inter-
face.
Connect another MIDI cable from the
2
MIDI In port of your device to one of the
MIDI Out ports on the back panel of the 003
family interface.
The MIDI Out port can be selected in
Pro Tools or a supported third-party appli-
cation.
