Otari MX-55 XLR Pin Configuration
« on: April 23, 2012, 04:23:26 PM »
Hello,

I read somewhere in here about the XLR pin configuration on the Otari MX-55 but I can't find it.

My question is, what color is the "Hot" on a MX-55? I want to make sure it has not already been swapped.

Cheers

IIRC they share with the 5050's that pin 3 is hot.
