02R with Video Machine & DA-88
This application shows how the 02R can be used with a video machine and DA-88 for audio
post-production and audio sweetening, with 02R automation. Using only the SMPTE
timecode from the video machine, the DA-88 can generate timecode (SMPTE or MTC) for
the 02R. A timecode offset can be specified on the DA-88.
Connections
• The Tascam (CD8-TD) card must be screwed securely in place. Do not leave the screws
out after installation as the card will not be grounded correctly.
• The Tascam digital audio cable (PW-88DL) carries the eight tape sends and eight tape
returns.
• The DA-88 is connected to Slot [1] of the 02R. These tape inputs correspond to tracks
one through eight.
• The optional SY-88 Sync Board is required. The DA-88 has a dedicated timecode track
and can output SMPTE timecode or MTC. In addition, a timecode offset can be
specified on the DA-88, so the 02R automix start time can be adjusted. The DA-88 also
has the ability to re-stripe the timecode track.
• The video house sync is connected to the Video In BNC connection on the DA-88.
02R Wordclock Setup
The 02R works as a wordclock slave. A Tascam (CD8-TD) card is installed in Slot [1], so any
one of the first 8 tape inputs can be selected as the wordclock source on the DIGITAL I/O
menu.
DA-88 Wordclock Setup
The DA-88 generates a wordclock signal referenced to the Video In signal (VIDEO). The
sampling rate is set when the DA-88 tape is formatted. This can be either 48 kHz or
44.1 kHz. After formatting, the sampling rate is determined by the formatted tape.
Notes
• The DA-88 must be powered up even when it is not being used. Failure to do so may
cause an intermittent pumping noise on the 02R.
• On the DA-88 rear panel, set the MACHINE ID to 0.
• The optional Tascam SY-88 Sync Board must be installed to use SMPTE timecode and
MTC. This is available from Tascam.
• The rear panel of the SY-88 Sync Board has a DIP switch labeled MODE. Set DIP
switches 2 and 5 to ON (0). Set internal switch 8 on the SY-88 board marked S2 to ON.
• To use the MTC function, the SY-88 firmware must be version 3.08 or higher.
• On the Tascam (CD8-TD) card there is a DIP switch that should be set to 16-bit. This is
the initial setting, but you should confirm it. This switch is for use with Tascam High-Bit
recording applications.
• Tascam 25-pin digital audio cables PW-88DL (5 m) and PW-88D (1 m) are available
from Tascam.
