1
SYNC MASTER
Set this parameter to run the console in synchronization with an external device.
Set the parameter to "INT" to use the console as the master. To use the console as the
slave, set the parameter to "EXT" and determine which time code to sync to. To follow
the MTC, set it to "MTC", while to sync to the time code used by the device connected
to R-BUS, set it to "MULTI 1-8", "MULTI 9-16," or "MULTI 17-24".
2
MIDI SYNC Tx SW (MIDI Sync Transmit switch)
Determines the time code to be sent to an external device when the console (master)
is run in synchronization with that device. Set it to "MTC" to send the MTC or to
"MIDI CLOCK" to send a MIDI clock. Set it to "OFF" to send nothing.
3
SYNC OFFSET
It provides the time on both the console and other devices with an offset when the
console runs in synchronization with a device such as video device.
4
ERROR LEVEL
Sets the time interval to check the reception of MTC when the console runs in
synchronization with an external device upon MTC reception. This console stops
synchronization when MTC is not sent in succession. Increasing the error level value
allows the console to synchronize with an external device even if there are some
problems in receiving MTC.
5
FRAME TYPE
Sets the frame rate to suit an external device.
6
MMC CONTROL
Set it to "ON" to control an external device using MMC (MIDI Machine Control), or
to control the console from an external device.
7
MMC MASTER
Determines which device's MMC is used for control.
Set it to "INT" when the console controls an external device by transmitting MMC. Set
it to "MIDI" when the console is controlled by MMC sent from an external device. To
control the console with MMC transmitted from the device connected to R-BUS, set it
to "MULTI 1-8", "MULTI 9-16", or "MULTI 17-24".
