You can let the output of a specific track lag behind that of others by a
maximum of 7200 samples (Fs). This is like an offset you may wish to
enter so that one transport will synchronize to the master with a
distance maintained between them.
1 sample corresponds to 22.7 microseconds at 44.1 kHz, and to 20.8
microseconds at 48 kHz.
1 When the display shows ABS time, hold the A key and press
DISPLAY.
The display will read "d1. tr SEL," prompting you to select the
track you wish to lag.
2 Press REC FUNCTION of the desired track.
The display will now read "tr 1 00 00" (if you pressed REC
FUNCTION 1), prompting you to specify how many samples the
track will lag.
3 Use the A and W keys to enter the desired numerals. Each time
you press either key, the display will increment or decrement in 1
sample steps, up to 7200 samples/down to -200 samples. You can
hold the key to scroll through the numerals.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for other tracks if necessary.
4 To complete the procedure, press DISPLAY.
ABS time will appear again.
To reset the current delay time
(1) When the display shows ABS time, hold the A key and press
DISPLAY.
(2) Press the REC FUNCTION key of the channel whose delay time
you wish to reset.
