Master Synchronization Notes
Although the Fast Forward and Rewind keys will function correctly during synchronization to SMPTE/
EBU timecode, the timecode information is not transmitted. Therefore, connected external de-
vices are stopped during these operations.
If the timecode signal is interrupted during SMPTE-LTC master synchronization, the slave units
will stop playback until the signal is again received.
If the SMPTE/EBU timecode synchronization operation continues over 24 : 00 absolute time (mid-
night), the sound data will be momentarily interrupted.
