The AMT8 (Active MIDI Transmitter) is the ideal MIDI interface for the versatile "tape-less" studio. Digital audio and MIDI are recorded and edited in one computer by software such as Logic Audio. Video is internally synchronized using QuickTime or AVI. Additionally, the AMT8 is the right choice with which to expand existing Unitor8 systems.
An Emagic interface system will continue to serve as the switchboard of your equipment set-up, even without the computer connected. Up to 32 freely programmable routing configurations (patches), can be recalled with a program change command. In the unlikely event of notes sticking while in patch mode, the front panel panic button will quickly fix the problem.
1. In 8, Out 8
The last MIDI input and output of the AMT8 is located on the front panel of the unit. This allows for problem free connections with other MIDI devices and guest keyboardists.

2. MIDI Indicators
There is an LED indicator for every MIDI input and output, giving a clear indication of MIDI activity and signal flow.
3. USB/RS 422 (Mac)/RS 232 Support
The connection lights indicate whether a Macintosh (RS 422)RS 232 or a USB compatible machine communicates with the AMT8.
4. Panic/Patch Button
A quick press of this button will send an all notes off message through all MIDI ports of the AMT8, cancelling any stuck notes (panic function). Holding the button down toggles the AMT8 between its computer mode and its patch mode.
