01V—Owner’s Manual
01V & Tascam-Interface Recorder
This example shows how the 01V can be used with an 8-track digital tape recorder, or
8-track hard disk recorder, featuring a Tascam Digital Audio Interface (TDIF-1) con-
nection to create a 16-input, 8-track fully digital recording system, with the 16 mic/line
inputs and eight digital tape returns providing up to 24 inputs during mixdown.
System Components
• 01V Digital Mixing Console
• MY8-TD Option I/O card
• 8-track digital tape recorder, or 8-track hard disk recorder, such as the Tascam DA-38
Tascam DA-88, Tascam DA-98, or Akai DD8.
• Tascam PW-88D digital audio 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, the digital multitrack recorder is
wordclock master and the 01V and DAT recorder are wordclock slaves. The 01V derives
its wordclock from the Option I/O digital input. The DAT derives its wordclock 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 recorder, the DAT
recorder must be configured as wordclock master and the 01V and digital multitrack
recorder as wordclock slaves. In this case, the 01V would derive its wordclock from the
Digital Stereo Coaxial In connection. Since the digital multitrack recorder cannot
derive a wordclock signal from its digital inputs, a BNC cable is used to supply a word-
clock signal from the 01V. (Note that this connection is only necessary when the digital
multitrack recorder is used as a wordclock slave.) 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 sampling rate will be fixed at 44.1 kHz, the industry-standard for music CDs.
System Notes
• The TDIF-1 connector on the MY8-TD is connected to the digital multitrack
recorder using a Tascam PW-88D digital audio cable.
• 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.
• The BNC wordclock connection from the 01V to the digital multitrack recorder is
only necessary when the digital multitrack recorder is used as a wordclock slave.
