Model D2424 Quick Operation Guide
In the following, basic multi-recording of adat digital signals will be carried out on the assumption that a
digital mixer is connected to D2424 (To output adat digital signals from the digital mixer, refer to the Operat-
ing Manual of the digital mixer you are using). Prior to operation, D2424 must be set to the [Initial state].
Basic digital recording
1. Press the SETUP key to enter the SETUP mode.
2. Select the “D. in?” menu by using the [JOG] dial,
and press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
The current selection will be displayed together with
"D. in?" (the default is "Analog").
By pressing the [EXECUTE/YES] key, the selection starts
flashing, showing that you can now change the
selection.
Selecting Digital In
3. Select “adat:Async” or “adat:Sync” by using the
[JOG] dial, and press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
To lock the mixing console to recorder's WORD OUT (or
digital out), select “adat:Async”.
If the mixing console cannot be locked to the digital word
clock, select “adat:Sync”.

Selecting Digital Out
After completing the Digital In setting, select "Digital Out".
When setting Digital In to an "Async" mode (“adat:Async”
or “SPDIF:Async”), Also select "Reference clock".
4. Select the “D.out?” menu by using the [JOG] dial,
and press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
The current selection is displayed together with "D. out?".
The default is “D.out adat”. If another selection is
displayed,select “D.out adat” using the following
operation. Press the [EXECUTE/YES] key and the
current selection will starts flashing.
<About Digital Out selection>
In addition to the initial setting of "D.out adat" from
among the digital out setup items, "D.outSPDIF" can
also be selected, and setup in compliance with the ap-
plication. When set to "D.out adat," outputs of tracks 1
- 8 (6 - 16, 17 - 24) will be assigned to digital out. This
will be the initial setting and signals can be output to
digital mixers and adat equipments provided with adat
input functions. The following signals will be output
from each DATA OUT ports.
DATA OUT 1-8: Outputs of tracks 1 - 8
DATA OUT 9-16: Ouputs of tracks 9 - 16
DATA OUT 17-24: Outputs of tracks 17 - 24
When set to "D.outSPDIF," outputs of two tracks (1-2,
3-4, 5-6) will be assigned to digital out. It will thus be
possible to ouput S/P DIF signals (L, R) to external digi-
tal equipments. Signals listed below will be output from
each DATA OUT ports.
DATA OUT 1-8: Outputs of tracks 1 - 2
DATA OUT 9-16: Outputs of tracks 3 - 4
DATA OUT 17-24: Outputs of tracks 5 - 6
<About Digital In selection>
For setup items of digital in, in addition to the initial
setting of "Analog," "SPDIF:Async," "SPDIF:Sync,"
"adat:Async" or "adat:Sync" can be selected and setup
to match the application.
"Analog" indicates that none of the tracks are assigned
to digital in and is the setting in which digital signals
cannot be input to any of the [DATA INPUT] connec-
tors.
"SPDIF:Async" and "SPDIF:Sync" are used when assign-
ing S/P DIF signals (L, R) from external digital equip-
ment to tracks 1 and 2 of D2424, and selected to digital
in asynchronous (Async) or synchronous (Sync) de-
pending on the system in
use. In this case, [DATA INPUT 1 - 8] only can be used.
"adat:Async" and "adat:Sync" are used to assign adat sig-
nals (ch 1 - ch 8) from external digital equipments to
tracks 1 - 8 (9 - 16, 17 - 24) of D2424, and in compli-
ance to the system, select it to asynchronous (Async)
or synchronous (Sync) with digital-in.
In this case, all [DATA INPUT] ports can be used and
each input port will function as shown below.
DATA IN 1-8: Tracks 1 - 8 will be assigned.
DATA IN 9-16: Tracks 9 - 16 will be assigned.
DATA IN 17-24: Tracks 17 - 24 will be assigned.
"DIGITAL" will be lit if set to the asynchronous mode while
a correct adat digital signal is being input from the digital
mixer, and "EXT" will also be lit if set to the synchronous
mode. If it is locked to the word signal, "WORD" will be lit.
