Connecting Video Sync; Connecting Midi - Roland DM-80 Owner's Manual

CONNECTING
VIDEO SYNC
Video Sync can be used to control the DM-80's Sampling Rate Clock.
Connect an NTSC or PAL format video signal to the Video Sync input and
set the Sampling Clock Source to VIDEO SYNC in the System menu.
1) Via the MIDI IN port, if you are using an application that generates
MTC, such as Mark Of The Unicorn's Performer or Opcode Vision
sequencing software.
2) If you are using Track Manager as the MIDI Time Code master, you
can send MTC via the DM BUSS. This means you can send control
information and MTC sync from one Macintosh port, leaving the other
port free for other tasks.
NOTE TRIGGERS The DM-80's Trigger Mode provides a method of using MIDI note
information to trigger recorded phrases. Trigger notes are defined in the
Trigger Mode screen. Notes must be received on the MIDI Control
Channel, set in the System Menu.
MIDI METRONOME MIDI notes can be used as a metronome. The notes are defined in the
Metronome window (in record parameters). Notes are transmitted to the
MIDI OUT jack, on the MIDI Control Channel set in the System Menu.
MIDI ТАР — MIDI notes can be used to enter the tempo in Tap Tempo mode. MIDI
notes are defined in the Tap Teach Screen. Notes must be received on
the MIDI Control Channel, set in the System Menu.
MIDI Clocks can also be used to calibrate the Tempo Map. The MIDI
Clocks option is selected in the Tap Teach screen.
