Mtc Frame Rate Setting; Mtc Offset Time Setting - Fostex D-108 Owner's Manual

MTC Frame Rate Setting ("Frame Rate ? ")
If you choose MTC as the MIDI sync signal in the previous section "MIDI Sync Signal Output Setting", you need to set up this mode.
You can set up the frame rate of the MTC generated for external MIDI equipment such as computer based sequencer software.
Choose the frame rate so that the external MIDI device can receive it.
1. Press the DISP SEL key and choose the flashing SETUP
mode on the display. Then, press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The SETUP display will stop flashing.
2. With the JOG dial, choose "Frame Rate?".
The "?" display will start flashing. The display will also show
the current setting. In the case of initial setting, it will show
25 frames.
3. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current setting will start flashing "**" which indicates it
is ready to change the setting.

MTC Offset Time Setting ("MTC OFFSET")
If you choose the MTC as the MIDI sync signal in the previous section "MIDI Sync Signal Output Setting", you need to set up this
mode. You can set up the offset time between the MTC output and internal ABS time.
In the case of the initial setting, MTC will output 00h 59m 57s 00f 00sf at the ABS 00h 00m 00s 00f 00sf point which is ABS 0.
You can also set the MTC offset based on the 001bar 1beat 00clk position rather than ABS 0. Refer to the next section "MTC Offset
Mode Setting" for details.
D-108 Owner's Manual (Changing the initial setting <SETUP mode>)
* See page "75" "MIDI Synchronization Function" for details of the MTC sync.
* Initial setting : 25 frames
* Available setting : 24, 25, 30df, 30nd, 29.97df, 29.97nd
* This setting is applicable song by song.
* This setting can be saved or loaded as a part of the song data.
* The setting is memorized even when the power is off.
* Make sure you choose the right program before setting up this mode.
<Note>
There are no 29.97nd or 29.97df in the MTC standard. Use either 30nd or30df
unless you definitely need to synchronize the D-108 with NTSC video.

<Note>
We recommend you set about three seconds of preroll time because in the MTC
OFFSET of 00h 59m 57s rather than 01h 00m 00s, considering the preparation
time to start the external sequencer in the event that you have chosen "ABS" in
the MTC OFFSET mode.
4. With the JOG dial, enter the frame rate you want.
Choose the frame rate you want from;
24, 25, 30 non drop frame, 30 drop frame, 29nd (29.97 non
drop frame) and 29df (29.97 drop frame).
5. Press the EXECUTE/YES key once again.
The setting will be registered and the display will go back to
the Item 2 above.
* Press either the "STOP" button or EXIT/NO key to return
from the second step menu to the first or to quit the SETUP
mode. The menu will go backwards each time you press
either key so that you can correct the setting, choose some
other SETUP mode or eventually return to the normal time
base display.
