About Machine Control

The 02R96 can control the transport and locate functions of up to eight external recording
machines that support MMC (MIDI Machine Control).
Machines that support MMC can be controlled by connecting them to the 02R96's MIDI,
SERIAL, USB, or SLOT1 (with optional mLAN I/O Card installed in Slot #1).
MMC support varies from machine to machine. Some machines may not operate exactly
as explained in this section.
Configuring Machines
Up to eight machines can be configured as follows.
Use the MACHINE CONTROL [DISPLAY] button to locate the Machine Con-
1
figuration page.
Use the cursor buttons to select the parameters, and use the Parameter
2
wheel, INC/DEC buttons, and [ENTER] button to set them.
MACHINE CONTROL/DAW CONTROL: When the MACHINE CONTROL option is
on, the MACHINE CONTROL section controls external MMC machines, except when a
DAW Remote layer is selected, in which case it controls the DAW. When the DAW CON-
TROl option is on, the MACHINE CONTROL section controls the DAW regardless of
which Layer is currently selected. These settings also appear on the Locate Memory page
(see page 194).
TYPE: This is used to specify the type of machine: MMC or NONE.
PORT: When the machine TYPE is MMC, use this parameter to specify the port for MMC
communications. Available ports include: MIDI, SERIAL 1–8, USB 1–8, and SLOT1 1–8.
DEVICE ID: When the machine TYPE is MMC, use this parameter to specify the device ID
from 1 to 127 or ALL. The target machine must be set to the same ID. The same ID cannot
be assigned to more than one SERIAL, USB, or SLOT1 port.
TRANSPORT CONTROL: This parameter determines which machine is controlled by
the 02R96's transport buttons. Only one machine can be controlled at a time.
