I recently purchased an Octamic XTC, and I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. I already used it to record several jazz and improv sessions on my iPad, using Auria, and I couldn't be happier with the sound quality and the ease of use. One thing is puzzling me a bit, though. On the back of the device, above the location where the MADI connectors are, it reads MADI [option]. Does this mean that the MADI connection is an add-on that needs to be purchased separately, or am I interpreting this label incorrectly? At this moment I have no other MADI equipment, but I would like to know anyway, since one never knows if this connection might come in handy in the future.

Many thanks in advance for your replies!

Cheers,
Vincent
