1. CLOCK SOURCE Indicator and SELECT Button
These set and display the sampling-clock source. Press the
[SELECT] button to choose one of the clock sources
described below. The indicator for the currently selected
source lights up.
REAC
This sets the Clock Source to derive clock from the S-MADI’s
internal clock or any REAC master device connected to S-
MADI’s REAC MAIN port.
MADI
This sets the Clock Source to derive clock from a MADI device
connected to S-MADI’s MADI IN connector.
WORD CLOCK
This sets Clock Source to derive clock from a Word Clock
generator or other device connected to S-MADI’s WORD
CLOCK IN connector.
2. LOCK STATUS Indicator
This displays the lock status of the sampling clock. It lights
up when the clock source is locked normally. It flashes when
the lock experiences a problem.
3. SAMPLE RATE Indicator and SELECT Button
These set and display the sampling rate. Press the SELECT
button to choose either 44.1 kHz or 48 kHz. Select the
sampling rate that matches the signals output from the
source device.
This lights up when the clock source is locked normally. It
flashes when the lock experiences a problem.
* Selecting [REAC] as CLOCK SOURCE makes the SELECT button for
SAMPLE RATE light up and allows you to change the setting.
* You can press the SELECT button for SAMPLE RATE and change the
setting only when it is illuminated. When dark, activating the button
is disabled.
* Selecting [MADI] or [WORD CLOCK] as CLOCK SOURCE automatically
sets the S-MADI’s sampling rate to match with MADI or WORD
CLOCK input.
The S-MADI supports sampling rates of 44.1 kHz and 48 kHz.
The S-MADI cannot convert sampling rate. Sampling rate of all
connected equipment must be identical.

is disabled.
* When [MADI] or [WORD CLOCK] is selected as CLOCK SOURCE, the

setting is automatically locked to [MASTER].
For information about mode settings, refer to “Connecting MADI/
