Tape Sync
Recording
Sync
signals
The
R-8MK
II
can sync
to
an
FSK
(synchronizing)
signal
recorded
on
an
MTR. You
can use
the
R-8MKII
as
a
tape
sync
interface
to
make
another
MIDI device (which
does
not feature
a
tape sync
function) play
in
time with an
FSK
signal
recorded
on an
MTR.
To
record
tape sync
signals
from
the
R-8MKII
to
an
MTR,
follow
this
procedure
:
TAPE SYNC
OUT
LINE
IN
R-8MKI1
.MTR
*When
recording tape
sync
signals,
do
not
use
noise
reduction or an equalizer
;
devices
will
cause
problems.
If
you cannot
avoid using
them
in
recording (because
of the specifications of
the
MTR),
you
must
use
them
in
exactly
the
same
settings
during playback.
Step
1
Set
the
Sync
Mode
of
the
R-8MK
II
to
"INTERNAL"
(see
page
151).
Step 2
Adjust the
recording
level
(approx.- 10
to
-
3VU)
on the
MTR.
*When
the
R-8MK
II
is
stopped,
pilot
signals
are
always output
from
the
TAPE
SYNC OUT
jack.
Step 3
Set
the
tempo
for
the
sync
play.
Step
4
Start recording
on
the
MTR
first,
then
start
the
R-8MKII
a
few
seconds
later.
Step
5
When
the
R-8MKII
stops
playing,
wait
for
a
few
seconds
and
stop the
MTR.
