VM200 User’s Guide
Mixing a CD Source and Recording to a Digital Multitrack Recorder
In this example, a signal from a CD player is mixed with a signal from
an ADAT-compatible digital multitrack recorder, such as the Fostex
VR800, and recorded to the digital multitrack recorder.
The CD player serves as the word clock master, and uses a sampling
frequency of 44.1kHz. The VM200 and the digital multitrack recorder
are word clock slaves, both syncing to the CD player word clock.
Set the Master Word Clock parameter on the VM200 to “SPDIF44.”
The VM200 is word clock SLAVE.
Multitrack Recording and Mastering to a DAT
In this example, an audio signal is recorded to an ADAT-compatible
digital multitrack recorder, such as the Fostex VR800, while also
being mixed from the digital multitrack, and sent to a DAT master
recorder.
The digital multitrack recorder is the word clock master. The VM200
and the DAT machine slave to it.
Set the Master Word Clock parameter on the VM200 to “ADAT44” or
“ADAT 48,” depending on the sampling frequency of the digital mul-
titrack recorder.
(If you are using the Fostex VR800 digital multitrack recorder, set this
parameter to “ADAT44.”)
The VM200 is word clock SLAVE.
