To allow this operation, set the "Solo Latch"
checkbox in the Mix Options Setup window, or
press GENERAL in the Setup Section and, under
Solo, select "SOLO LATCH" ON or OFF in the Fat
Channel Display.
• When the Link Speakers checkbox is enabled, the
Mains and Near Field SPEAKER LEVEL control
is linked. Increasing or decreasing the SPEAKER
LEVEL control simultaneously adjusts both the
Near Field and the Main Control Room Output.
This provides a consistent level when A/B'ing
between speaker sets. The default option is an
unlinked state (same as OSv1.0).
• Holding down the [Shift] key and spinning the
SPEAKER LEVEL V-Pot temporarily breaks the
link. This can be used to establish a level offset
between the two stereo output pairs. The level
difference is maintained in the same operational
manner as linked channel parameter offsets. The
link offset may be updated at any time, using the
[Shift] key.
• When this option is checked, source channel
faders control the level to the tape outputs 1–24.
• When this option is not checked, level to tape
outputs 1–24 are adjusted by selecting LEVEL TO
TAPE in the V-Pot Assign section and adjusting
the channel V-pots.
• This operation resets the minimum and maximum
fader values for the OS.
• For optimum performance and positioning
response, the fader calibration may be used
periodically. The calibration takes a few minutes
to perform its routine, so take a break, will ya?
Caution: Do not touch the faders during the
calibration procedure. Doing so could damage the
servo motors.
Note: This procedure is only available from
the Mix Options Setup window on the screen.
• Import a MIDI Tempo Map from a standard MIDI
File to synchronize the D8B Bars/Beats/Ticks
display with your MIDI sequencer MTC reference.
Note: Tempo Map only recognizes 4/4 meter.
• Sets the automatically-set MIDI tempo reference
for position alignments during an automation pass
or locator activities.
• Sets the Device ID reference for connected record
devices such as the HDR24/96, ADATs, or DA
Series multitracks.
• Sets the consistent time difference between the
record device time code and the D8B reference
time code.
• Generally used to 'zero reference' a song's
starting point in BBT. It's easier to jump to
measure 1 than 2:01:23 (usually).
• Offset can be as little as one frame or as much as
23 hours, 59 minutes, 59 seconds, and 29 frames.
• Sets the time difference between a Locate point
and the actual start point.
Many record devices require a few seconds to
synchronize, so the Pre-Roll time allows a brief time
period in advance of the locate point to ensure
transport sync and accuracy.
Check this option to enable the D8B for inter-
network communication and file transfer.
• Note the D8B IP address displayed. The factory
default is 10.10.28.20
• If your computer is set up for dynamic IP
addressing, you can leave the default address as
is or enter an address of your choice. You will
need to know the D8B IP address to set up your
FTP client software.
• If your computer is set for a fixed IP address, set
the first three fields of the D8B IP address to
