VR800 Owner’s Manual (Changing the initial setting: SETUP mode)
Setting an MTC offset
1. While the VR800 is stopped, press the SETUP key
to enter SETUP mode.
2. Turn the JOG dial to select [Mtc Offset (?)] ([t] and
[?] flash alternately.), then press the EXECUTE/YES
key.
The current offset value appears on the display.
Pressing the EXECUTE/YES key turns off the flashing [?]
character, and the value in seconds flashes.
You can enter a value at the flashing digit. The number
[57] of the initial setting [57S] flashes as shown below.
3. Use the HOLD/> key, the REWIND button, or the
F FWD button to move the flashing cursor, and turn
the JOG dial to enter the desired offset value.
Press the HOLD/> key or the F FWD button to move the
flashing cursor to the right, and press the REWIND button
to move it to the left. Turning the JOG dial continuously
will round up the number to the next digit.
For example, if you rotate the JOG dial on the seconds
digit up 59, turning the dial further will increase the
number on the digit of minute by one.
4. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The selected offset value is stored and the display returns
to the indication with the flashing [?] that appeared in
step 2.
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 VR800 returns to the previous hierarchy
level of the menu, and finally exits SETUP mode and
displays the previous Time Base.
Setting Offset mode (“Ofset Mode ?” menu)
If you have selected [MTC] in the “Setting Offset mode” menu, you need to select MTC Offset mode.
This menu enables you to determine whether the specified MTC is output at ABS 00H 00M 00S 00F or at 001 BAR
1
00 CLK (bar/beat) of the Tempo Map.
Note:
For example, if you set MTC Offset mode to [ABS] (see the
next section) and you wish to start the song from MTC’s 01H 00M
00S 00F, you may wish to set a preroll of three seconds with an
MTC offset of 00H 59M 57S 00F.
Note:
As an example, if you set MTC Offset mode to [ABS] and you wish to start the song from MTC’s 1H 00M 00S 00F, you may want to set
a preroll of three seconds with MTC offset of 00H 59M 57S 00F.
If you select [BAR ] as the MTC Offset mode, a preroll of two measures is automatically set. Use 01H 00M 00S 00F; do not set a preroll value.
Note:
If you set Offset mode to [BAR ] and use MTC to synchronize sequence software on the computer, the tempo of the sequencer may
sometimes slip gradually. This is because the tempo of the VR800 and the tempo of the software are slightly different even if both use the
same tempo. Some sequence software can read the tempo output from the VR800 correctly. We recommend that you use the tempo of the
VR800 on the sequence software. No such problems will occur if the sequence software synchronizes the VR800 via MIDI clock, instead of
MTC.
