Wordclock
For proper wordclock connections, it is necessary to terminate the last device in the wordclock
chain. The WR-DA7 allows ON/OFF of the 75-Ohm terminator on the wordclock input.
ON: Is selected when the WR-DA7 is used as a wordclock master or as a slave at the end of
the wordclock connections (terminated at 75 Ohm). (A clock output synchronized with DA7
is generated at the word clock's output.)
OFF: Is selected when the WR-DA7 is used as a slave, the wordclock input entered in the WR-
DA7 is transmitted as a through output.
MIDI
To select the port for MIDI communication, press the MIDI switch until the [MIDI>SETUP] screen
appears. Then select the port for [Gen.Rx] and/or [Gen.Tx] from either MIDI or TO PC.
The MIDI channels assigned to Gen.Rx and Gen.Tx function serve as a device ID number of the
WR-DA7 during reception or transmission of MIDI data. (Select OMNI to receive messages on all
MIDI channels.) For selecting the MIDI channels, press the MIDI switch until the MIDI SETUP
screen appears. Then, select a channel for Gen.Rx or Gen.Tx.
To control external equipment using MIDI Machine Control commands, set the MMC port to MIDI
and assign a MIDI channel. The MIDI channel needs to be the same as the external equipment
being controlled. To make the setting, press the MIDI switch until the MIDI SETUP screen appears.
Then, set up the MMC port and CH (MIDI channel).
Timecode
The WR-DA7 can record and playback automation in synchronization with external timecode. The
WR-DA7 can be synchronized to MIDI timecode (MTC), MIDI clock, and SMPTE timecode (using
the option card WR-SMPT). To select the timecode settings, press the AUTOMATION button until
the SETUP screen appears. Select the appropriate timecode from the TIME BASE area in
Automation EXECUTE window, using the parameter dial select MTC, MIDI CLK, or SMPTE then
push the ENTER key.
When MTC is used, select a port to be used for receiving the MIDI data. The MTC receive port can
be selected by pressing the MIDI switch until the MIDI SETUP screen appears. Then, select the
MTC port from MIDI or TO PC.
