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

Checking Chase Lock
1. When the master device (RD-8) is played, the MTC IN LED on the slave machine (D-160) will light,
then “CHASE” will light in the display, and Chase Lock will be complete.
Check to make sure the display shows the correct MTC time.
2. When you stop the master device, the MTC transmission from the master device will be interrupted
and the slave machine will also stop.
The illuminated “CHASE” will flash.
3. While the master device is in fast forward or rewind mode, the slave machine will remain stopped.
When you start playing the master device, the slave machine will start the Chase Lock
operation.
<Note>
The D-160’s re-chase window is “10 frames” fixed. That is, when the MTC of the master
device and the MTC of the slave machine slip from each other by 10 frames or more, the
slave machine will interpret this as being out of sync, and it will try to lock with the master
device again (this is called a “re-chase” operation). During the re-chase operation, audio
output will be muted. If slippage is within 10 frames, the slave machine will continue running
while accepting the slippage. Since the master device supplies a digital signal to the slave
machine in this system, the slave machine will not perform the re-chase operation after
chase lock is complete.
* If the Chase Lock operation or control is not correct, check all connections, cables, and
settings.
Recording
You may perform recording while the RD-8 and the D-160 are chase-locked.
* Setting the “Digital input track setting” and “Digital output track setting” on the
D-160 will allow audio to be transferred between devices in the digital domain.
Please note that a track specified for digital input will not accept an analog signal.
When this system is to be used with the digital input track set to "adat," because
an analog can be input to the adat track not connected, a digital 8 track and
analog 8 track can be simultaneously recorded.
For example, if DATA INPUT 1-8 are being used and DATA INPUT 9-16 are not
connected, analog signals can be input in the analog input 9-16 connectors.
