Default WHICH BNC CABLE WHERE?

Hi everyone...
MIX Plus
888/24
ADAT bridge I/O
MTP-AV
BRC
2 ADAT XT 20's

what's my best sync scnenario for transfer from ADAT to PT and back? And does it hamper my audio clock performance in ANY way?
Should I use the BRC at all?

I figured I'd dump the BRC and use the MTP-AV for my main clock source (says it should be in the ADAT Bridge I/O manual) because it has superclock and the BRC doesn't. In that manual it has my configuration without an 888/24. my question is all about BNC cables.
If the MTP- AV is the master do I take it's 256x clock into my 888/24 (my primary interface) and then daisy to the ADAT Bridge I/O? that seems logical... please help me!

do i need an aardvark if I want it perfect?

Hi Teddy,

Garry Rindfuss here. I highly reccommend an Aardsync II for your system. I've used systems like this with and without, and I really think the Aardsync makes a difference in terms of audio quality, and speed of lockup. I know it's a bit pricey, but it's worth it. You just make it the clock master for everything, and run BNC cables (always use high quality 75 ohm, and as short a run as possible) from the back of the unit to the wordclock in of all of your devices. Hope this is of some use.

Garry

There are many ways to set up the ADAT bridge but if the MTP-AV is master then you would take 256x out of your MTP-AV to your 888/24 onto your ADAT bridge.

Also please check out the latest manual posted on our web site in the Support/Documents link:
