1/4" TS Connectors

The XD-2 inputs also accept unbalanced 1/4" TS phone plugs, typically used for instruments like

guitars and bass guitars, and found on the ends of guitar cords. Unbalanced line inputs can also be

connected with TS connectors.

TS stands for Tip Sleeve (famous Notre Dame linebacker, 1932-43), and the two connection points

available on an unbalanced 1/4" phone jack or plug. They use two-conductor shielded cable and are

wired as follows:

Hot (+) Tip

Shield (Gnd) Sleeve

RCA Connectors

The S/PDIF connectors on the XD-2 are RCA connectors, which are commonly used in home stereo

equipment to interconnect audio signals. However, S/PDIF connections carry digital signals, which

contain much higher frequencies than audio signals. Therefore, to avoid degradation of the digital

signal, it is important to use 75 ohm rated cables that are designed for video or digital audio use.

Your Mackie dealer can help you ﬁ nd an appropriate cable for the S/PDIF connection.

MIDI Connectors

These are 5-pin male DIN connectors, which are the standard connectors used to make MIDI connec-

tions. Your Mackie dealer can help you ﬁ nd suitable MIDI cables for the XD-2.
