Title: Digi Mix Core and Sample Cell
Post by: LoFizle on November 28, 2018, 02:03:28 PM
Anyone know, if a Digi Mix Core and a SampleCell can be used together with out the need of a digi interface?

The manual doesn’t really touch on this. Says the Sample cell i/o show up in the digi I/o, but it says nothing about if you still need a interface.

Although it mentions haveing a two track tdm system?

Thanks

pretty sure the samplecell can be used on its own

two track tdm? is probably referring to audiomedia card?

Yeah... not sure about Sample Cell but to make use out of a Mix system you'll need an interface hooked up.

samplecell has direct outs on the back bracket of the card itself --  4 x stereo 1/4" as far as i know

I know the SampleCell can be used by itself, and that it has 1/4 ins and outs. An I know the mix system needs a interface, but I’m wondering if the inface can be side stepped if the SampleCell is connected to the mix core with the tdm bridge.

Anybody have a Mixcore and sample cell they would be willing to test this theory. Basically  just unplug the digi interface and see if it still works?

Unfortunately No.......
SampleCell has 8 outputs 4 Stereo Pairs using a Ring, Tip sleeve cable
In order to send those outputs to a Mix system you would need a TDM Piggyback board
that was sold separately back in the day. Think of the piggy back board as a Digital Out like on
your favorite hardware sampler. It only worked in one direction sending the SampleCells
output Digitally to a Protools Mix TDM Bus.
