5 – Setting up the I/O—Output assignments

TASCAM DM-24 Reference Manual
Output assignments
The buss settings and the aux sends 1 through 4 may
be routed to the three internal TDIF slots, as well as
to the ADAT output and any slot cards fitted.
The output grouping destinations are grouped in
out-
put blocks
of eight signals.
Block sources
(busses,
direct outputs or aux sends) are mapped to these
blocks. The blocks are grouped together, and the
block sources are sent in parallel to all blocks in the
group
The eight output busses are assigned on a one-to-one
basis to the outputs within a block (that is, buss 1 will
feed channel 1 of the output block, etc.is
NOTE
The more recent models of TASCAM DTRS recorder have
an internal patchbay which allows you to reassign
inputs to tracks.
If a direct out has been selected in the assignments
(“Channel-to-buss assignments (global)” on
page 40), this will take priority over the buss outputs
(the appropriate buss output will not be selected for
the block/channel combination used by the direct
outs).
The composition of the output blocks, and the
choices for the block sources are:
In the
I/O OUTPUT
sub-screen, use the dial and
ENTER
key to select the source for each output
block.
Digital outputs
The two
DIGITAL OUTPUT
s may output: the stereo
outputs (
STEREO
), a pair of busses (
BUSS1–2
,
BUSS3–
4
,
BUSS5–6
, or
BUSS7–8
), a pair of aux sends (
AUX1-2
,
AUX3-4
,
AUX5-6
) or the control room signal (
C.ROOM
).
The XLR and RCA connectors for each output are
fed in parallel with the selected signal, and the format
is determined in the
DIGITAL FORMAT
screen (“Digital
output” on page 26).
Move the cursor to the appropriate field (
DIGITAL
OUT1
or
DIGITAL OUT2
) on the left of the screen, Use
the dial and
ENTER
key to select the desired output
signal.
