Summary of Contents for Tascam SX-1

  • Page 1 TEAC Professional Division SX-1 Digital Production Environment SX-1 Version 1.50 Sony P2 Protocol Documentation This manual describes the changes and additions to the Sony P2 support for the SX-1OS V1.50 software. See also the V1.10 release note for other issues that were addressed after...
  • Page 2 Mixdown mode, any tracks Rec-armed over P2 will be turned off until MixDown mode is exited. This is for safety and to make the behavior similar to the SX-1’s internal recorder. If the resulting mix is to be recorded to the external P2 device, another pass is required after...
  • Page 3 Make sure that the SX-1 HDR entry has CHASE=LTC Master set. It is still possible to control the SX-1 if it is set to chase LTC or MTC, in which case motion control commands will be translated and sent to the designated timecode master, if one is in the machine control list, and just EDIT ON/OFF &...
  • Page 4 Sony P2 Specifications. Timing: The SX-1 will reply to incoming commands within 9ms. The time required to actually execute the command and update the STATUS MAP will vary and may be much longer. See note *6 for details about deferred commands.
  • Page 5: Transport Page

    EDIT PRESET SENSE TIMER MODE SENSE Unsuported Commands Notes: *1 Command is acknowledged, but no action is taken. *2 The SX-1 can selectively reply to this command, set in the LCD Preferences screen, TRANSPORT page. F01A TASCAM HDR Series (Default) 6003...
  • Page 6 All other frame rates have no effect on the reply data, e.g. 29.97 and 30 frame rates, drop or non-drop. *3 If the SX-1 is currently set to emulate the Sony BVU950, the REC command is treated the same as EDIT ON (20 64), and the HDR will punch in on rec-arm’ed tracks. Otherwise this command is acknowledged but ignored.
  • Page 7 P2 EDIT FIELD: If the SX-1 is also receiving a valid VIDEO or TTL signal at the VIDEO SYNC IN port, this control can be used to specify which field of the frame that the command will be executed in.
  • Page 8 If there is no valid VIDEO or TTL signal being received by the SX-1, then the command will be executed during field 1 of the calculated frame. The frame boundaries are assumed to line-up with the first sample at 00:00:00:00...
  • Page 9 CH1-CH16 bits are ignored. HDR tracks 3-16 that are currently in record will not be cleared. If the device type = TASCAM or SONY 3324S then A1 and A2 status is ignored and the bits CH1-CH16 are read and applied to HDR Channel 1 to 16.
  • Page 10 This command is a deferred command whose execution may be delayed to occur on a subsequent frame or video field boundary, see Note *5 for details. *12 NAK DATA: The SX-1 returns the data value 01 = UNDEFINED COMMAND for commands that it does not recognize. If the received command has an incorrect checksum, the data value is 04 = CHECKSUM ERROR.
  • Page 11 DATA 1/BIT 7: STANDBY ON This bit is always set. DATA 1/BIT 5: STOP This bit is set whenever the SX-1 HDR is stopped, except when in shuttle mode with speed=0. DATA 1/BIT 3: REW This bit is set when the SX-1 HDR is rewinding.
  • Page 12 Program Play (21 38 or 21 39): Bit 3 DATA 2/BIT 2: DIRECTION This bit is set if the SX-1 HDR is shuttling in reverse. It is not cleared until a command is received that starts the transport moving forward again.
  • Page 13 This bit is set when the SX-1 HDR is recording or rehearsing. DATA 4/BIT 0: CUE UP REQUESTED This bit is set when the SX-1 HDR starts to locate, and clears when Data 2/Bit 0 is set. DATA 5/BIT 6: INSERT This bit is set whenever there is one or more HDR audio tracks are armed for recording.
  • Page 14 To fix this problem: Add washers under the SX-1 DSUB connector's nuts (1 or 2 as required) so that the cable's screws can reach the SX-1 connector. The appropriate washer is designed for DSUB: Part number :D-SUB WASHER HW-C050MN00) (92603306-00...
