02R with One ADAT (Timecode on Tape Track)
This application shows how the 02R can be used with one Alesis ADAT to create a 24-input,
8-track digital recording system. As shown in Figure 1, track eight of the ADAT has been
striped with SMPTE timecode. This is then fed to the 02R’s SMPTE TIMECODE input
using a phone jack to phono cable.
The eight digital tape returns and 24 Mic/Line inputs provide up to 32 inputs at mixdown.
In addition, the 02R’s built-in automation and scene memory systems provide both
dynamic and static mix automation referenced to timecode.
Connections
• The ADAT (CD8-AT) cards must be screwed securely in place. Do not leave the screws
out after installation as the cards will not be grounded correctly.
• The Digital In/Out connectors on the 02R and ADATs are connected together using
Optical Cables. Press the DIGITAL IN button on the ADAT to use the DIGITAL IN.
• The ADAT is connected to Slot [1] of the 02R. These tape inputs correspond to tracks
one through eight.
• ADAT track eight is striped with SMPTE timecode. ADAT track eight analog out (phone
jack) is connected directly to the 02R’s SMPTE TIMECODE input (phono).
02R Wordclock Setup
An ADAT (CD8-AT) card is installed in Slot [1], so any one of the first 8 tape inputs can be
selected as the wordclock source on the DIGITAL I/O menu.
In Figure 1 the ADAT is shown as wordclock master. However, it could alternatively be used
as wordclock slave with the 02R as master. In this case, the ADAT would be set to “digi”. This
can be confirmed by pressing the DIGITAL IN and SET LOCATE buttons together. The
internal clock can then be set on the 02R
ADAT Wordclock Setup
The ADAT should be set as wordclock master. To confirm this, press the SET LOCATE and
DIGITAL IN buttons together. The display should show “int”, meaning internal wordclock.
The ADAT sampling rate can be set to either 48 kHz or 44.1 kHz. Use Fixed mode for
48 kHz and Variable mode for 44.1 kHz (using the PITCH DOWN button, set to –147 cents.
At which point “–146, 44.1, –148” appears on the display). The newer ADAT-XT has
dedicated switches for selecting these two sampling rates.
Notes
• Press the DIGITAL IN button on the ADAT to use the DIGITAL INPUT.
