Thank you for adding the Remote 48 to your line of Mackie equipment. If you’re familiar with the HDR24/96, you probably already know what most of this remote control does, but just in case, this guide will explain all those other buttons ... some of which are new or a little Remote 24 and HDR24/96

Note: When this manual refers to the HDR24/96 recorder, the MDR24/96 recorder applies as well unless stated otherwise.

Installation

Mount on Stand (Optional)

The Remote 48 can be placed on any stable work surface, but for optimal support we recommend the Quik-Lok QL-406 stand. The QL-406 is a roll-around remote stand with height and tilt adjustment made specifically for the Remote 48. See www.quiklok.com for specifications.

Mount on Mic Stand (Optional)

When mounting the Remote 48 on a standard 5/8” thread mic stand, we recommend the Omnimount 50-ST mounting plate and 5000-MA stand adaptor. Be sure the base of the stand is broad enough to adequately support the Remote 48.

What About The Remote 24 ?

Good question! You can use the Remote 24 in parallel with the Remote 48. Simply connect it to the Remote 48’s

THRU

port using the Remote 24’s supplied cable. This is an especially useful configuration if, for example, you have an additional workstation or sound stage/booth located away from the Remote 48. We think there is a ‘more than remote’ possibility of you using this setup.

In this configuration the Remote 48 will remain fully operational. Of course, you will not have access to features unique to the Remote 48 such as arming tracks 25-48, when controlling from the Remote 24.

Footswitch

A must-have for performer-engineers: use a footswitch to punch-in and out on the fly, stop and start the transport, jump to the next cue, create new cues, or select the next take. The footswitch function is assigned in the HDR24/96 General Setup window. This TS 1/4" jack accepts a momentary, normally open footswitch—available at any reputable music store.
