MTC Type
Valid Settings: 30, 29N, 29D, 25, 24 (Initial value: 30)
This sets the type of MTC output from the MIDI OUT
connector.
30: 30 frames per second non-drop format. This is
used by audio devices such as analog tape
recorders, and for NTSC format black and
white video (used in Japan and the U.S.).
29N: 29.97 frames per second non-drop format. This
is used for NTSC format color video (used in
Japan and the U.S.).
29D: 29.97 frames per second drop format. This is
used for NTSC format broadcast color video
(used in Japan and the U.S.).
25: 25 frame per second frame rate. This is used
for SECAM or PAL format video, audio
equipment, and film (used in Europe and
elsewhere).
24: 24 frame per second frame rate. This is used
for video, audio devices, and film in the US.
Rhythm MIDI Channel (RhyMIDI ch)
Valid Settings: 1–16, OFF (Initial value: 10)
This sets the MIDI channel for the Rhythm performance data
output from the MIDI OUT connector. No data is output
when this is set to OFF.
Offset
Valid Settings: 00:00:00-00.0–23:59:59-29.9
(Initial value: 00:00:00-00.0)
Sets the time required to align the song playback and MTC
timing when synchronizing an external device using MTC
from the BR-900CD.
The offset is set as the difference between the “time to which
to align the MTC timing” and the “time to which to align the
song timing.” For example, you want to have the external
device play back with the MTC timing shown below when
the song timing reaches “01h00m00s00,” then set the offset as
follows.
The Offset is stored to each song individually.

This setting turns the “Preview function” on and off.
When the Preview switch is set to ON, pressing [REW]
during scrub playback provides one second of playback time
starting from the current location, while pressing [FF]

current location.
