VDC Configuration
Pro64’s Virtual Data Cables provide an easy way to distribute control signals
throughout a network, greatly expanding the possibilities for using and
distributing MIDI, GPIO, and RS‑232/422 control signals. A‑Net provides the
ability to send these control data over greater distances than previously
possible with traditional analog connections. And with MIDI and GPIO
connections, infinite numbers of copies of the control data are available
everywhere in the network.

: Not all Pro64 modules have the same complement of VDC I/O. The
6416dio Digital I/O Module has the ability to use the GPIO, RS‑232,
or RS‑422 Virtual Data Cable types. MIDI is not supported. MIDI data
will, however, pass through the 6416dio to other Pro64 network
modules that can make use of this data type.
Fourteen VDC Slots are available at all times; VDCs are not affected by the
current sample rate or network mode. The makeup of the VDC Slots is user
