Recording a SYNC Signal on the Tape
1
Connect the MT400 to the FSK/MIDI
converter or the SMPTE/MTC converter as
shown in the diagrams on pages 38 and 39.
2
Set the [INPUT-FLIP] switch on Input Channel
4 to
MIC/LINE (
)
.
3
Set the [REC SELECT] switch on Track 4 to
.
The Track 4 REC SELECT indicator flashes. A signal
output from the converter is routed to Track 4 via the
MIC/LINE INPUT 4 of the MT400.
4
Set the [METER SELECT] switch to
.
5
Press the [PAUSE] button, then the
button.
6
Prepare the MIDI sequencer and FSK/MIDI or
SMPTE/MIDI converter for SYNC signal
output.
7
Start the MIDI sequencer, or SMPTE/MTC
converter.
A SYNC signal is sent from the converter to Track 4
via Input Channel 4.
8
While checking the level meter, use the GAIN
control and the fader on Input Channel 4 to
set the level of the SYNC signal.
At this time, set all the EQ controls to midway around
noon (flat).
