D-108 Owner’s Manual (MIDI Synchronization)

<One Point Advice>
Sync signal "Free" of the "Slave mode setting" menu:
When the D-108 is made to chase lock by MTC only, variable pitch will be constantly applied by external MTC. If a digital signal is output to an
external digital equipment from the D-108, it will not be able to follow the speed difference (MTC speed difference of the master) of the D-108 and
the external digital equipment, in some cases, may not be able to input a continuous digital signal.
As a counter measure, the sync signal should be set to "Free" by the "Slave mode setting" menu. Using this setting, the D-108 will enter self
operation by the internal clock, after completion of chase lock, and it will be possible to supply a stable digital signal to the external equipment.
Under this setting, when MTC drift between the master unit and slave unit exceeds 10 frames, the D-108 will assume that chase lock has been
disengaged and the slave unit will carry out position matching again with the master unit (re-chase operation). During the re-chase operation,
sound output will be muted and the digital signal will also be interrupted. If it is within 10 frames, the slave unit will continue to run while admitting
this drift.
Multitrack system using a FD-8, FD-4
Connecting the devices
* Connect DATA OUT of the D-108 to DATA IN of the FD-8, and MIDI OUT of the D-108 to MIDI IN of the FD-8.
This section explains a multitrack system that uses the D-108 as master and a maltitracker (FD-8 or FD-4) as slave.
Using the D-108 as a master device allows for Chase Lock operation using the Vari-pitch function or the MTC.
The example explained here uses Fostex FD-8 as a slave machine, but you can use another model with the same settings
to configure the multitrack system.
* Initialize the D-108 and the FD-8.
* Check the Programs on both machines.
* Set the sampling frequency on both machines to 44.1kHz.
<Note>
The best setup is to supply the MTC and S/P DIF digital signal from the master device so slave operation will be successful.
