Title: Where to take the feed for DK Audio MSD100C
Post by: Protagonist on September 23, 2026, 01:32:38 PM
Hi guys

Where is the best place to take a stereo signal from the 4000G to feed an external DK Audio MSD100C

Somewhere on the 237 meter distributor card?

Thanks

U could check behind the main left & right VU meters. There might be a DB 9 or 25 connector with stereo outputs on it.

Why not just use patch points? Wire it to a couple of TT connectors.
You could possibly use the 237 card. The 2 balanced output hybrids H1 and H2 feed a balanced output to connector conn2.
These are present but not used on my console.
Left goes to pins 3 + 7, Right goes to pins 4 + 8. Looking at the 237 pcb with the label on the bottom right the bottom right pin on conn2
is pin one. The top right pin is pin 4. So, the 4 pins in the top right corner of conn2. You can buy the female pins that fit conn2 at Newark PN SC 16ML1S6.

Thanks for the reply mate.

Which patch points are you referring to out of interest?

Followed Conn 2 from H1/H2, on my console Conn 2 takes the 2 circuits to DL32, So I can add some pins and a couple of XLR's to my DL32 connector and pick up from there.

It seems Dl 32 is your tape sends. Patch from a 2 track tape send patch point (top row).

Just seen this post (I am the wiring Moderator here and worked for SSL for 7 years)
Brief reply as I am busy with other stuff.
The 5 x stereo feeds appear on the patchbay, half normalled down to various 2 tracks but are ALL paralleled so if ONE is unbalanced, it will unbalance them ALL so be careful.
DL 32 is the connector involved of course but I haven't got time to look it up now to advise you but have the pinout here, although it changed a bit over the years after the 4 and 6K consoles.
Look at your patchbay (J/K and L/M to see what is there and message me if you have a problem.
Good luck and this should be an easy fix. Jim Lassen in the UK.
