3. Use the JOG dial to turn Slave mode on and off.
Rotating the JOG dial clockwise and counter-clockwise
alternates flashing [on] and [oFF].
Selecting [on] turns Slave mode on, and selecting [oFF]
turns Slave mode off.
4. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
If you select [oFF], [e] and [?] flash alternately.
If you select [on], [e] and [?] flash alternately and [SLAVE]
flashes as shown below.
This means that the FD-8 has not locked to the sync signal.
When the FD-8 locks to the sync signal from the master
device, [SLAVE] lights up steadily.
After you set Slave mode to [on], you need to select the
Slave type (type of sync signal) described in the next section.
To cancel the operation, or to restore the setting obtained
prior to the EXECUTE/YES key press, press the STOP
button or the EXIT/NO key. Each time you press one of
these keys, the FD-8 returns to the previous hierarchy
level of the menu, and finally exits SETUP mode and
displays the previous Time Base.
Setting the Slave type (“Slave Type ?” menu)
The “Setting the Slave type” menu enables you to select the type of external sync signal used when the FD-8 is set
as a slave to sync to an external device.
• Initial setting: [VAri]
• Option: [VA ri], [SP di F], [Ad At], [Fr EE]
[VA ri]: The FD-8 synchronizes only to external MTC.
[SP di F]: The FD-8 locks to MTC, then synchronizes to incoming S/ PDIF digital signals.
[Ad At]: The FD-8 locks to MTC, then synchronizes to incoming adat digital signals.
[Fr EE]: The FD-8 locks to MTC, then synchronizes to the internal clock.
* You can set the parameter for each Program individually.
* The settings can be saved and loaded as part of the song data.
* The settings are maintained after you turn off the power to the unit.
* The Program is automatically checked before the operation.
* The sampling rate is automatically checked before the operation.
Setting the Slave type (external sync signal)
1. While the FD-8 is stopped, press the SETUP key to
enter SETUP mode.
2. Turn the JOG dial to select [Slave Type (?)] ([e] and [?]
flash alternately), then press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current Slave type appears on the display.
Pressing the EXECUTE/YES key turns off the flashing [?]
character, and the Slave type indicator flashes.
With the initial setting, [VA ri] flashes as shown below.
3. Use the JOG dial to select the desired Slave type.
Rotating the JOG dial clockwise and counter-clockwise
will cause the [VA ri], [SP di F], [Ad At], and [Fr EE]
indicators to flash in sequence.
<Notes>
• You need to input MTC from an external device to the FD-8 with
any Slave type (external sync signal).
• The FD-8 re-chase window is fixed to ten frames. That is, if an
offset between the master device and slave device exceeds ten
frames, the FD-8 interprets that as out of sync, and tries to chase
and lock to MTC sent from the master device. (This operation is
called “re-chasing.”) During the re-chase operation, audio output is
muted. If the slave machine slips with MTC from the master device
by less than ten frames, the slave machine continues running while
recognizing the slippage.
