D-160 Owner's Manual (MIDI sync function)

<One point advice>
1. Setting the “Digital input/output track” parameter in the Setup mode allows you to input and output a
digital signal. Note the following when you set this parameter.
* When you set up a digital input track and “DIGITAL (red)” lights up on the display, the D-160 is ready for
syncing with an external word clock via the input digital signal. Use caution not to make a digital signal loop
as mentioned previously.
* When you set up a digital input track, the settings for the external sync signal of the “Slave mode setting” in
the Setup mode (that is, Vari, SP DIF, adat, and Free) will be ignored, and the D-160 will sync with the
specified digital input signal. Refer to “2-13. Slave Type setting” in Setup mode on page "155" for more
information.
* When you set up a digital input track, the Vari-pitch function is turned off (the LED is also turned off).
2. You can integrate the “MIDI clock sync” operation or “MTC sync/MMC system” operation (as mentioned
before) into this multitrack system.

Connection:
MIDI OUT of D-160 (#3) is connected to MIDI IN of the external MIDI equipment.
Setup of the MIDI sync signal:
In D-160 (#3), select either the MIDI clock necessary for synchronizing or MTC.
* For MIDI clock sync, the external MIDI equipment and D-160 (#3) must be setup by the previously
discussed "MIDI clock sync" procedure.
* For MTC sync, the external MIDI equipment and D-160 (#3) must be setup by the previously discussed
"MTC sync/MMC system" procedure.
* Control of each D-160 becomes possible if the DEVICE ID in the sequence software MMC output (3 channels)
is set to comply with the DEVICE ID (00, 01, 02) setup in D-160.
* When in any mode other than output of MIDI CLOCK from the D-160, MMC from MIDI IN and also FEX are
automatically merged and output from MIDI OUT.
In the above schematic, the MMC and the reply message of MMC/FEX which are output from D-160
(master) itself and, MMC and FEX output from the computer, are merged and output from MIDI OUT.
