14 – Timecode synchronization
Basic operation with timeline
synchronization
1. In timeline mode, load the session that you want to
record or play back.
2. Either of the following operations will enable timeline
synchronization.
While pressing and holding the 0 SHIFT key, press the CALL
[CHASE] key on the front panel.
On the
0 SYNC page of the SYNC T/C screen, set TC Chase
to ON. The CHASE indicator will appear in place of the TC indi-
cator on the Home Screen.
3. Press PLAY key to start synchronized playback or PLAY
and RECORD keys to start synchronized recording. The
CHASE
indicator on the Home Screen appears green.
4. Press the STOP key during recording or playback with
timecode synchronization to stop the transport. The
CHASE
indicator on the Home Screen blinks when
stopped.
5. To resume recording and playback with timecode
synchronization, repeat steps 3 and 4.
6. Either of the following operations will disable
synchronization.
While pressing and holding the 0 SHIFT key, press the CALL
[CHASE] key on the front panel.
On the
0 SYNC page of the SYNC T/C screen, set TC Chase
to OFF.
NOTE
In either case, recording or playback will continue without
interruption. The TC indicator will appear in place of the
CHASE
indicator on the Home Screen.
Timecode offset
You can set an offset for master timecode synchronization.
By doing so, you can synchronize to master timecode for
playback with a set time difference (see “SYNC page” on
page 104).
Rechase
This unit continues to monitor master timecode even
after synchronized playback starts. Should the playback
time of this unit and the master timecode become
unsynchronized for any reason, the unit can “rechase”
the timecode. You can set whether or not the unit uses
rechase and the degree of the discrepancy that must
occur before rechasing (see “SYNC page” on page 104).
CAUTION
During synchronized recording, this unit only
synchronizes to the master timecode once at the start of
recording. There is no rechase function as there is with
synchronized playback.
