Connection To A Digital Mixing Console - Fostex 8346 Operation Manual

APPENDIX
(Operation manual for the recorder with the Model 8346 TC/SYNC card installed)
The recorder with the Model 8346 installed can connect to a digital mixing console and record an
adat digital signal from the console.
In this example, the recorder receives external LTC from a VTR, etc., locks to the time code, and
returns the locking information to the digital mixing console via the digital mixer. In this process,
the digital console outputs the adat digital signal to the recorder with the timing in sync with the
receiving word clock. See the connection example on the next page.
