Chapter 10 Combining Recorders

Note about time code

Before implementing remote control of the multitrack recorder, you need to specify

the device that will provide the time standard (time code master). When the built-in

auto-mixing function is not used, this setting may not be compulsory. Depending on

recorders, however, remote control may not be available if the parameter is not set.

Normally, the multitrack recorder is selected as the master because of its mechanical

arrangement. Select MULTI 1-8, MULTI 9-19 and MULTI 17-24 from “SYNC MODE”

described on “Settings related to synchronization” (p. 224).

■ Preparations for remote control (MMC settings)

Before implementing remote control, you must specify the master device, the one

that will be transmitting the operational information.

Selecting the MMC master (See p. 224; “Settings related to synchronization”)

When unidimensional control is provided from this system...

Select “ON” for MMC CONTROL and “INT” for MMC MASTER.

• Set up the external recorder so that it is ready to receive operational information

from this system.

When unidimensional control is provided from one of the external devices...

Select “ON” for MMC CONTROL.

Select MMC MASTER as described below.

Select the device connected to MIDI IN as the master → ”MIDI”

Select the recorder connected to R-BUS as the master → Select either “MULTI 1-8,”

“9-16,” or “17-24.”

• Set up the selected master so that it transmits operational information.

■ Playing or stopping recorders

The multitrack recorders can be played or stopped from the Transport Area situated

in the lower right-hand corner of the panel (see p. 11 “Names of Things and What

They Do”).

[ZERO] Moves the current time to the top position (00:00:00:00).

[REW/PREV] Moves the current time backward (rewind).

[FF/NEXT] Moves the current time forward (quick feed)

[STOP] Stops.

[PLAY] Starts playing (starts recording when [REC] is blinking).

[REC] Turns on the recording standby mode.

TIME/VALUE dial Changes the current time sequentially.

An underlined column of a time display that appears in the upper right-hand corner

of the screen represents the position where the time can be changed from the dial.

You can turn on quick feed of a displayed time using the dial while holding down

SHIFT. (Tape recorders require a certain amount of response time.)

This parameter is called “MMC” master selection, however, this parameter always

should be set to select the master of all other equipment when the remote control is

turned on. Whenever implementing remote control, set this parameter even if any

MIDI devices are not used.

In addition to remote

control via the R-BUS,

control of external

equipment is also available

with MMC (MIDI machine

control). It allows the

recorder to exchange

operational information

(such as that concerned

with play, stop and

recording), with devices

that recognize MMC data,

including programmable

logic controllers and hard

disk recorders.

Transmission and reception

of MMC data are carried

out according to the

settings specified in the

system SYNC CLOCK

screen (SYS SYNC/MMC)

(see p. 224).

You can turn on recording

y pressing [REC] and

[PLAY] at the same time.
