5. Use the screw removed earlier from the protective backplate to attach the
metal bracket at the back of the Layla card to the computer’s rear panel.
6. Replace the computer’s cover and secure it. Reattach its power supply
cord and reconnect any peripherals that you may have removed prior to
beginning the Layla installation.
7. Locate the Layla rack-mount interface and the 25-pin audio connector
cable. Securely mount the interface into your equipment rack. If you will
not be mounting the box in a rack, remove the backing from the four
rubber feet and place one in each bottom corner of the interface unit.
Then be sure to locate the rack-mount box in a secure location.
Plug one end of the cable into the 25-pin connector on the Layla card that
now protrudes through the back panel of your computer, and secure the
cable using the built-in screws located on both sides of the connector.
Attach the other end of the cable to the rear of the interface and fasten the
cable securely with the screws.
Caution: Never connect the rack-mount interface to the computer while
either the interface or your computer is turned on.
8. You can now attach external audio devices to the rack-mount box. Layla
can accommodate eight analog input signals and can generate ten
independent analog output signals. In addition, Layla provides word
clock/superclock sync, MIDI in/out/through, and stereo S/PDIF digital
input and output. Additional information on attaching external devices to
Layla may be found in the
Connecting to Layla’s Rack-mount
Interface
section. (NOTE: When connecting devices to the S/PDIF jacks
on Layla, do not use standard RCA audio cables. For reliable S/PDIF
operation, 75ohm coaxial video cables are recommended).
All of the analog and digital inputs and outputs on Layla are simultaneously
active, allowing you to record up to 10 channels of audio (eight analog and
two digital) while playing back twelve channels (ten analog and two
digital).
