Introduction<br />
Thank you for purchasing the Midiman <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s Serial Port MIDI<br />
Interface. The <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s offers professional MIDI and SMPTE performance<br />
in an external interface that attaches to any standard PC serial<br />
port, or Macintosh printer or modem port.<br />
The <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s is based on proven Midiman serial port MIDI interface<br />
and SMPTE synchronization technologies. The <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s has the following<br />
features:<br />
• Cross-Platform: 9-pin mini DIN connector works with both PC and<br />
Mac computers. The <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s automatically detects connection to<br />
a PC or Mac.<br />
• Operates as a MIDI interface and a stand-alone SMPTE<br />
reader/writer/regenerator.<br />
• Four independent MIDI Outs and two MIDI Ins provide 64 channels<br />
of MIDI output and 32 channels of MIDI input.<br />
• Large high-performance data buffers ensure full MIDI throughput<br />
with no data loss.<br />
• Built-in SMPTE Time Code reader/writer/regenerator supports all<br />
standard time code formats (24, 25, 29.97, 30-drop, 30 non-drop), and<br />
is completely controllable via Front Panel pushbuttons and the<br />
included Remote Control software.<br />
• Supports SMPTE User Bits, set by incoming SMPTE or by Remote<br />
Control software.<br />
• Adjustable SMPTE flywheel and Jam Sync.<br />
• “Mac Thru” switch allows you to activate or bypass the unit so you<br />
can retain your Mac modem or printer connection.<br />
• Windows and MacOS drivers included.<br />
• Drivers are multi-client and support full MIDI bandwidth on all<br />
ports — even when using multiple programs. Multiple <strong>BiPort</strong> 2x4s<br />
units may operate simultaneously.<br />
• Industry standard MME compatible for the PC, OMS compatible for<br />
Mac.<br />
• Apple Geo-Port compatible.<br />
• Compact size.<br />
