01V—Owner’s Manual
Two 01Vs & two Tascam-Interface Recorders
This example shows how two 01Vs can be used with two 8-track digital tape recorders,
or 8-track hard disk recorders, featuring Tascam Digital Audio Interface (TDIF-1) con-
nections to create a 32-input, 16-track fully digital recording system, with the 32
mic/line inputs and 16 digital tape returns providing up to 48 inputs during mixdown.
01V-A and 01V-B are cascaded together using the Stereo Digital In and Stereo Digital
Out connections. 01V-B audio signals are combined into a stereo mix, which is then fed
to 01V-A via the Digital Stereo Coaxial connections and mixed with the audio signals
of 01V-A. The TO HOST connection links the two 01Vs together for simultaneous
operation, so when, for example, the fader mode is set to Aux 1 on 01V-A, the fader
mode on 01V-B is also set to Aux 1, and vice versa. See “Cascading 01Vs” on page 214
for more information.
System Components
• Two 01V Digital Mixing Consoles
• Two MY8-TD Option I/O cards
• Two 8-track digital tape recorders, or 8-track hard disk recorders, such as the Tascam
DA-38 Tascam DA-88, Tascam DA-98, or Akai DD8.
• Two Tascam PW-88D digital audio cables
• Tascam PW-88S sync cable
See “Installing Option I/O Cards” on page 218 for MY8-TD installation instructions.
Wordclock Configuration
For digital audio transfer, digital audio devices must be wordclock synchronized (see
“About Wordclocks” on page 206). In this example, digital multitrack recorder A is
wordclock master, while digital multitrack recorder B, the 01Vs, and DAT recorder are
wordclock slaves. Digital multitrack recorder B derives its wordclock from the sync con-
nection with recorder A. The 01Vs derive their wordclocks from their Option I/O dig-
ital inputs, and the DAT, from the Digital Stereo Coaxial Out of the 01V. The wordclock
frequency, which is the same as the sampling rate, is set when the digital multitrack tape
is formatted or first recorded.
For digital recording from the DAT recorder to the digital multitrack recorders, the
DAT recorder must be configured as wordclock master and the 01Vs and digital multi-
track recorders as wordclock slaves. The sampling rate will be the same as that used
when the DAT tape was recorded. If a CD player is used instead of the DAT, the sam-
pling rate will be fixed at 44.1 kHz, the industry-standard for music CDs.
System Notes
• The TDIF-1 connectors on the MY8-TD cards are connected to the digital multi-
track recorders using Tascam PW-88D digital audio cables.
• MY8-TD cards feature a device selector switch that should be set according to the
type of recorder connected. “EXT: 88” for DA-88. “INT: 38” for DA-38 or other
recorder.
• Although the 01V is a four-bus mixer, a combination of bus outs, aux sends, and
channel direct outputs can be assigned to the digital outputs for eight-track simulta-
neous recording. See “Assigning Option I/O Digital Outputs” on page 219 for more
information.
