D-160 Owner's Manual (MIDI sync function)
134
Procedure for the Chase Lock operation
1. Press a RECORD TRACK select key on both machines to set the tracks in the “READY” mode.
2. Press the RECORD and PLAY buttons on the D-160 to start recording.
The DMT-8 Ver. 2 will also start recording. This is because the master device will send
a RECORD command.
This procedure is used to create an area that can be played back on the DMT-8 Ver. 2;
you do not need to input audio (silence recording). If you make a silent recording of
almost the same length as the song to be recorded, sync operation can be started at
any point in the song.
3. Press the STOP button on both machines.
* If something has been previously recorded, you do not need to perform this procedure.
<Note>
The D-90, D-80, D-80 Ver. 2, DMT-8 Ver. 2, DMT-8VL, and DMT-8 can play back only
the recorded area (ABS 0 through ABS END).
Therefore, if nothing is recorded, they cannot output the MTC or perform the Chase Lock
(sync).
At this point the devices are not chase-locked, but recording separately.
Follow the procedure below so that the two units will chase-lock to each other.
Setting the D-160 (Master)
1. The D-160 will output the MTC for the sync operation.

procedure and additional information.
2. Set any frame rate for the “MTC Frame rate setting” in the Setup mode.
# Refer to “2-9. MTC Frame rate setting” in the Setup mode on page "151" for the procedure

3. Select “ABS” for the sake of compatibility with the DMT-8 Ver. 2 for “MTC offset mode setting”
in the Setup mode.
# Refer to “2-11. MTC offset mode setting” in the Setup mode on page "153" for the
procedure and additional information.
4. Set an offset time for “MTC offset time setting” in the Setup mode.
# Refer to “2-10. MTC offset time setting” in the Setup mode on page "152" for the procedure

6. Select “SP DIF” as the digital output signal for the “Digital output track setting” in the Setup
mode.
* Only an S/P DIF digital signal can be used with the D-80, D-80 Ver. 2, DMT-8 Ver. 2,
DMT-8 VL, and DMT-8.
