Digital Input and Output
Fast Track C600 provides digital inputs and out-
puts for S/PDIF format digital audio. These in-
puts and outputs can be used in conjunction
with the four analog inputs and six analog out-
puts of Fast Track C600. This means the inter-
face is capable of handling 6 inputs and 8 out-
puts simultaneously.
Connecting Digital Devices
To connect a S/PDIF device to Fast Track C600:
1 Be sure to use 75-ohm coaxial cables with
male RCA connectors on both ends.
2 To send a digital signal into the Fast Track
C600, connect the device's S/PDIF output to the
Fast Track's S/PDIF input port. To send a digital
signal from the Fast Track C600 to an external
device, connect the Fast Track C600 S/PDIF out-
put to the device's S/PDIF input.
Using S/PDIF Input
To configure Fast Track C600 to record from a
S/PDIF device:
1 Open the Fast Track C600 Control Panel and
click the Setup button in the upper right section
of the window.
2 When the Setup dialog opens, select S/PDIF
from the Clock Source pop-up menu on the
General Setting page, and then click the Close
button in the lower right of the Setup window.
3 On the recording track in your software, select
the appropriate stereo or mono S/PDIF source
from the track Input selector.
It should now be possible to record incoming
S/PDIF signals with your audio application.
MIDI Connections
The two MIDI ports on Fast Track C600 let you
take advantage of MIDI features within your re-
cording application, including recording and
editing MIDI tracks.
To connect your MIDI device to Fast Track C600:
1 Connect a standard 5-pin MIDI cable from the
MIDI Out port of your device to the MIDI In
port on the back of Fast Track C600.

MIDI In port of your device to the MIDI Out
port on the back of Fast Track C600.
