03D with Video Machine & DA-88
This application shows how the 03D can be used with a video machine and Tascam DA-88
for audio post-production and audio sweetening. Using only the SMPTE timecode from the
video machine, the DA-88 can generate MTC for the 03D. The eight digital tape returns and
18 Mic/Line inputs provide up to 26 inputs.
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.
• YGDAI digital outputs can be configured as bus outs, aux sends, input channel direct
outs, or stereo outs. So although the 03D is a four-bus mixer, assigning the four buses
and four aux sends, or the channel direct outs, to the YGDAI outputs allows eight-track
simultaneous recording. YGDAI output assignments are made on the D.out Setup page,
which can be located using the [DIO] button.
• YGDAI digital inputs feed 03D input channels 17 through 24.
• 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 03D 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.
03D Wordclock Setup
The 03D works as a wordclock slave. Any pair of YGDAI digital inputs can be selected as the
wordclock source. Use the [DIO] button to locate the D.in Setup page for wordclock
settings.
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 03D.
• On the DA-88 rear panel, set the MACHINE ID to 0.
• The optional Tascam SY-88 Sync Board, available from Tascam, must be installed to use
SMPTE timecode and MTC. To use the MTC function, the SY-88 firmware must be
version 3.08 or higher.
• 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.
• 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
