MMC is transmitted from the MIDI output port on the rear panel of the remote CPU to MMC-compatible devices. • Transport controls can be programmed to export specific MIDI messages other than standard MMC protocol. See MIDI Mapping on page 85 for more details. Note: MMC is not bidirectional. The D8B sends out MMC commands to your tape recorder(s), but if you arm tracks or operate transport controls from the tape recorders, the activity is not transmitted back to the D8B via MMC. You can, however, press Play on your recorder and, as soon as time code is received by the D8B, it reverts to PLAY mode. REWIND button Engages external machine to fast rewind with no given locate point. FAST FWD button Engages external machine to fast forward with no given locate point. STOP button Stops external machines at the current position. Note: The STOP button lights when time code is not being received by the D8B. JOG Note: The PLAY button lights when time code is being received. It flashes when you press it and no MTC is received. RECORD button • Engages Master record function on external machines and Write Ready engaged automation channels. • Must be pressed with PLAY to engage record mode unless One Button Punch mode is active. • One Button Punch allows punching into record without hitting PLAY (see "Mix Options" on page 66). • Pressing any transport button takes the D8B and peripherals out of record status. JOG & SHUTTLE button Engages the rotary dial (below the REWIND, FAST FWD, STOP, and PLAY buttons) to advance external machines forward or backward with singleframe accuracy when using MMC. When Jog & Shuttle is enabled, the REWIND and FAST FWD transport buttons send out MMC shuttle commands, usually corresponding to fixed speed increments (i.e., 1/4x, 1/2x, 2x, etc.). Rotary Dial Encoder PLAY button This multifunction dial enables the scrub function. Engages external machine to play at normal speeds from the current location. D8B Manual • Chapter 2 • page 40
