Hi All

I've been trying to figure this one out to no avail...

I have an old cassette tape player I want to connect up to my 440 Pro, but I have no analogue inputs left on my master so I will have to enable the slave inputs, this in turn utilizes the trigger input on the master for the 2nd link cable.

The problem is my AV system already uses the trigger input to activate the system for watching movies etc. The Trigger In on the Slave seems to be of no use and can't be activated.

So the question is, is there any way of utilising the inputs on the Slave, and still have the ability to turn the system on via a trigger?

I don't think so. If you enable inputs on the slave, you haveĀ to use the trigger cable.
That's what I was afraid of, seems a shame when there is a perfectly good trigger port going spare on the slave unit...
