You can let the output of a specific track lag behind that of others by a maximum
of 7200 samples (Fs). This is like an offset you may want to enter so that one
transport will sync to the master with a distance maintained between them.
1 sample corresponds to 22.7 microseconds at 44.1 kHz, and to 20.8 microseconds
at 48 kHz.
1. When the display shows ABS time, hold the
A
key and press
DISPLAY.
The
display will read "dl. tr SEL," prompting you to select the track you want to
lag.
2. Press
REC FUNCTION
of the desired track. The display will now read
"tr 1 00 00" (if you pressed REC FUNCTION 1), prompting you to specify
how mamy samples the track will lag.
3. Use the
A
and
T
keys to enter the desired numerals. Each time you press either
key, the display will increment or decrement in 1 sample steps, up to 7200
samples/down to -200 samples. You can hold the key to scroll through the
numerals.
Repeat steps 2 and 3 for other tracks if necessary.
4. To complete the procedure, press DISPLAY. ABS time will show again.
