Model D2424 Reference Manual (Changing the Initial Settings <SETUP mode>)
Flashing
Setting digital input
1.While the recorder is stopped, press the [SETUP]
key to enter SETUP mode.
2.Turn the [JOG] dial to select “D. in ?” (“?” flashes),
then press the [EXECUTE/YES] key.
When “ D. in? ” (“ ? ” flashes) is selected, the presently set
digital input content will be shown.
The flashing “
? ” is extinguished when the [ EXECUTE/
YES ] key is pressed and the digital input setting will
change from lighting to flashing.
In the initial setting, “
Analog ” will flash as shown below.
3.Select the desired digital signal and digital-in clock
with the [JOG] dial.
In addition to “ Analog ”, “ adat: Async ”, “ adat: Sync ”,
“ SPDIF: Async ” or “ SPDIF: Sync ” can be selected.
“ Async ”/“ Sync ” which is displayed together with the
digital signal (S/P DIF or adat) must be selected to
whether the system is to be synchronized or not with
the digital-in clock.
If you do not wish to synchronize the system with digital
in, select “
Async ” and, if it is to be synchronized, select
“ Sync ”.
4.After selecting, press the [EXECUTE/YES] key
again.
The selected digital signal is registered and “ ? ” in Step-
2 will return to flashing.
When the digital input is setup and the correct digital
signal is input, “
DIGITAL ” will light up in the display.
If set to synchronous mode of “ adat: Sync ” or “ SPDIF:
Sync ” and locked to the external digital signal, “ EXT ”
will simultaneously light up.
<Notes>
• Should “DIGITAL” flash in the display, check the
connecting cable between the external equipment
and the external equipment setting.
• When the digital input is set up for “adat” (Async or
Sync), should any one among the three DATA INPUT
(1-8, 9-16, 17-24) be locked, "DIGITAL" will light up
in the display.
In such a case, tracks not locked will be
automatically set for analog input.
By using this function, for example, if analog signals
are input to tracks 1-8 and adat digital signals to
tracks 9-16 and 17-24, a total of 24 tracks can be
recorded simultaneously.
To cancel the operation, or to restore the setting
obtained prior to the [EXECUTE/YES] key press, press
the [STOP] button or the [EXIT/NO] key. Each time
you press one of these keys, the recorder returns to
the previous hierarchy level of the menu, and finally
exits SETUP mode and displays the previous Time Base.
Setting digital output (“D. out ?” menu)
By using the “Setting a digital output” menu, the type of digital signal to be output to external digital equipment
from the DATA OUTPUT connector (1-8, 9-16, 17-24) of this recorder, can be setup.
Also, by using this function, sound recorded in this recorder can be sent to external digital equipment (MD,
DAT, adat, digital mixer) in direct digital signals.
• Initial setting: [adat]
• Assignable digital signal: [adat] (adat digital signal)
[SPDIF] (S/P DIF digital signal)
* This setting is shared by all Programs in the same disk.
* The settings cannot be saved and loaded as part of the song data.
* The settings are maintained after you turn off the power to the recorder.
<Function of the DATA OUTPUT connectors>
<Setup for S/P DIF digital signals>
When the digital output is set up for S/P DIF, all DATA OUTPUT connectors can be used.
Signals of tracks 1-2 are output from OUTPUT 1-8; the signals of tracks 3-4 from OUTPUT 9-16; and signals
from tracks 5-6 from OUTPUT 17-24.
<Setup for adat digital signals>
When the digital output has also been setup for adat, all DATA OUTPUT connectors can be used.
Signals of tracks 1-8 is output from OUTPUT 1-8; the signals of tracks 9-16 from OUTPUT 9-16; and signals from
tracks 17-24 from OUTPUT 17-24.
