D-108 Owner’s Manual (Changing the initial setting <SETUP mode>)
1. Press the DISP SEL key and choose the flashing SETUP
mode on the display. Then, press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The SETUP display will stop flashing.
2. With the JOG dial, choose “OFFSET”.
The display will show the current setting. In the case of
initial setting, it will show 00h 59m 57s 00f 00sf.
3. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The “s” , second digits, display will start flashing which is
asking you to specify the second digit of the offset time you
want.
4. Use either the HOLD/> key or SHUTTLE dial to choose time
digits, i.e. “h”, “m”, “s”, “f”, “sf”.
Then, use the JOG dial to enter the required time value that
you want to register. The available setting is from 00h 00m
00s 00f 00sf to 23h 59m 59s 29f 99sf.
5. Press the EXECUTE/YES key after you have entered the re
quired Offset.
The MTC Offset will now be registered and the display will
then go back to Item 2 above.

MTC Offset Mode Setting ("MTC Offset ? ")
<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.
If you choose the MTC as the MIDI sync signal in the previous section “MIDI Sync Signal Output Setting”, you need to set up this
mode. This mode chooses the MTC time with offset, which you have already set in the previous section, to start either from the
ABS 0 position or from the 001 bar 1 beat 00 clk on the tempo map.
* See page "75" MIDI synchronization function for details of the MTC sync.
* Initial setting : ABS
* Available setting : ABS, Bar
* This setting is applicable song by song.
* This setting can be saved or loaded as a part of the song data.
* The setting is memorized even when the powering is off.
<Notes>
* 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 MTCOffset mode, a
preroll of two measures is automatically set. Use 01h 00m 00s 00f; do not set a preroll value.
* 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 D-108 and the tempo of the software are
slightly different even if both use the same tempo. Some sequnce software can read the tempo output from the D-108
correctly. We recommended that you use the tempo of the D-108 on the sequnce software. No such problems will occur
if the sequence software synchronizes the D-108 via MIDI clock, instead of MTC.
1. Press the DISP SEL key and choose the flashing SETUP
mode on the display. Then, press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The SETUP display will stop flashing.
2. With the JOG dial, choose “Offset Mode?”.
The “?” display will start flashing. The display will also show
the current setting. In the case of the initial setting, it will
show [ABS].
3. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The current setting will start flashing which indicates it is
ready to change setting.

4. With the JOG dial, enter a required setting either ABS or

.
If you choose the “ABS”, the MTC time with offset will output
at the ABS 0 position. If you choose the “Bar ”, the MTC time
with offset will output at the 001bar 1beat 00clk position
which according to the tempo map.
