Setting digital output tracks
1. While the FD-8 is stopped, press the SETUP key to
enter SETUP mode.
2. Turn the JOG dial to select [Digi. out ?] ([?] flashes),
then press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current digital output track assignment appears on
the display.
Pressing the EXECUTE/YES key turns off the flashing [?]
character, and the L channel setting of the digital output
track flashes. With the initial setting, [L- ] and [r- ]
appear, and [L- ] flashes as shown below.
You can select a flashing channel to assign a track.
<IMPORTANT>
Match the sampling rate of the digital input on the external device with
the sampling rate of the FD-8 to send digital signals from the FD-8 to
the external device.
Setting digital output tracks (“Digi. Out ?” menu)
The “Setting digital output tracks” menu enables you to assign the track that outputs digital signals from the
DATA OUT connector of the FD-8 to an external digital device. You can send the recorded audio data on the FD-
8 to an external digital device (MD, DAT, adat, digital mixer, etc.) in digital form. Any two tracks selected from
tracks [1]–[8], or [s-t] (STEREO OUT L, R outputs) are assignable. You can also select [AdAt] to output all track
data (1–8) simultaneously to a digital device with an adat input.
• Initial setting: [L- ], [r- ] (Stereo Out L, R output) = s
• Assignable tracks: L channel = [1] ~ [8], [ ] (Stereo Out L), or [AdAt]
R channel = [1] ~ [8], or [ ] (Stereo Out R)
* This setting is shared by all Programs in the same disk.
* The settings cannot be saved and loaded as part of the song data.
* The settings are maintained after you turn off the power to the unit.
3. Press the HOLD/> key, the REWIND button, or the
F FWD button to select a channel (L or r) and use
the JOG dial to specify a track.
To select tracks 1–8, Stereo Out L ( appears), or AdAt,
turn the JOG dial while [L] (Channel L) is flashing.
To select tracks 1–8 or Stereo Out R ( appears), turn
the JOG dial while [r] (Channel R) is flashing.
4. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The selected track assignment is stored, and [?] flashes.
Note:
At setup of the digital output track, tracks to be assigned to
L and R cannot be the same, for example, such as L-4 and r-4.
Should setup be executed by mistakenly selecting same track
numbers for L and R, the number setup for the L channel will be
given priority and “ “ will be setup automatically for R.
In other words, L channel will be setup to the specified track and R
channel will be setup to R of STEREO OUT.
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.
