The MADI I/O card can establish a 64-channel MADI input and output to a remote device such as stage rack, another console or Broadcast feed to an OB.
Optical inputs and outputs are provided on SC connectors available in multi-mode versions only. The auxiliary interface can be used as a redundant link.
A toggle switch allows the card to be switched from 64ch to 56ch mode for compatibility with older MADI devices.
NOTE: Stagebox compatibility with any given console depends on the console series and software running on that console. Please refer to the latest user manual for the Mini Stagebox or similar accessory to which you wish to connect.
NOTE: The Si MADI HD variant cards must not be installed in consoles.
