Safe'n'sound Record Recovery - Black Box BBR64-MADI User Manual

Master/Slave Recording
Any slave units will go into record as soon as their respective disk is ready, so
they may not start together and their time displays may not appear to be
perfectly in sync. However, all the files recorded will have an accurate time-
stamp and so will be in sync when imported into a DAW.
Master/Slave Playback
In order to playback synchronously, each machine must have its pre roll time
set to ensure that the disk files can all be ready in time. The default time will
normally be ok but this can be adjusted in the Control section of the Menu
(see page 25). The tracks from each unit may not necessarily start
simultaneously but they will be in sync when their audio starts. If the pre roll
time is too short you will see a message on one or more of the machines
saying PRE ROLL MISSED.
If you are using the BBR for Virtual Sound Checking you will want to set
Playback Lockout on the Slave units to Manual.

Safe'n'Sound Record Recovery

The BlackBox Recorder software includes Safe'n'Sound Record Recovery.
This software feature endeavours to protect your recording against every
eventuality such that even if the drive is unplugged, or the power is removed
from the drive or the BlackBox during a recording, Safe'n'Sound will try and
recover the files as soon as the drive is plugged back into a BlackBox
Recorder.
Whenever a disk drive is plugged into the BlackBox Recorder, the disk's filing
structure is checked and if any audio files are found to not have been closed
properly, Safe'n'Sound repairs them automatically, leaving all the files
accessible by normal workstations.
Whilst Safe'n'Sound cannot protect against a physical hard drive failure
(which are very rare nowadays), it helps protect against human error or
power failure.
