Introduction Thank you for purchasing the Midiman BiPort 2x4s Serial Port MIDI Interface. The BiPort 2x4s offers professional MIDI and SMPTE performance in an external interface that attaches to any standard PC serial port, or Macintosh printer or modem port. The BiPort 2x4s is based on proven Midiman serial port MIDI interface and SMPTE synchronization technologies. The BiPort 2x4s has the following features: • Cross-Platform: 9-pin mini DIN connector works with both PC and Mac computers. The BiPort 2x4s automatically detects connection to a PC or Mac. • Operates as a MIDI interface and a stand-alone SMPTE reader/writer/regenerator. • Four independent MIDI Outs and two MIDI Ins provide 64 channels of MIDI output and 32 channels of MIDI input. • Large high-performance data buffers ensure full MIDI throughput with no data loss. • Built-in SMPTE Time Code reader/writer/regenerator supports all standard time code formats (24, 25, 29.97, 30-drop, 30 non-drop), and is completely controllable via Front Panel pushbuttons and the included Remote Control software. • Supports SMPTE User Bits, set by incoming SMPTE or by Remote Control software. • Adjustable SMPTE flywheel and Jam Sync. • “Mac Thru” switch allows you to activate or bypass the unit so you can retain your Mac modem or printer connection. • Windows and MacOS drivers included. • Drivers are multi-client and support full MIDI bandwidth on all ports — even when using multiple programs. Multiple BiPort 2x4s units may operate simultaneously. • Industry standard MME compatible for the PC, OMS compatible for Mac. • Apple Geo-Port compatible. • Compact size. 4
