When you buy the HDSP MADI – you get both PCI cards included in the box, fit them both to the PC the main PCI board does the MADI I/O – the second is a mini extender PCI connector board that connects to the Main PCI board. This enables you to have MIDI and Wordclock IN/OUT aswell.

Hi Moses

Please read the Understanding MADI guide on our website i have attached a link below. Hopefully this will help you.

https://www.allen-heath.co.uk/dl/iLive%20Series/Application%20Notes/Understanding%20M-MADI%20-%20rev%2015JAN10.pdf

It is relatively simple to setup a record and playback system with iLive as long as you know how to configure the system correctly.

I would suggest configuring 2 scenes 1 for record and 1 for playback.

Record Scene 1
input source = Mixrack inputs, Outputs = PortB – set to either ‘mixrack inputs’ or ‘input direct out’ send to the recording device.

Playback Scene 2
input source = Port B inputs from recorder
