Using ADAT OUT
You can use an optical cable to connect the ADAT OUT connector on
the VM200 to an ADAT-compatible recorder, such as the Fostex
VR800 digital multitrack recorder.
The ADAT OUT connector outputs the same information as the REC
BUSS, but in digital form. The left channel of the REC BUSS stereo
signal is output to tracks 1, 3, 5, and 7, and the right channel to
tracks 2, 4, 6, and 8.
You can send channel 1–8 signals to ADAT DIRECT using the ROUTING
function page. The channel 1 signal is output to ADAT track 1, the
channel 2 signal is output to ADAT track 2, etc.
In this configuration, the VM200 is the word clock master and the
multitrack recorder or ADAT is the slave.
Set the Word Clock parameter on the VM200 to “INT44.”
For more information on the master word clock setup, refer to “Set-
ting the Master Word Clock” on page 162.
To route a digital signal to ADAT OUT, follow the steps below:
Assigning Channels to ADAT DIRECT SENDs
1. Press the Page Select [1–8 ANALOG IN] key to select the 1–8
channel layer.
The [1–8 ANALOG IN] key lights up.
2.
Press the [ROUTING/PHASE] key.
The VM200 displays the 1: ROUTING function page. The [ROUT-
ING/PHASE] key and selectable [EQ EDIT] keys flash; selected [EQ
EDIT] keys light up.
The ROUTING function page features a 3-by-20 matrix. The top row
of the matrix, labelled “DIRECT,” indicates which channels have
been sent to the ADAT OUT.
Note: The VM200 is unable to route signals from channels 9–16 (ADAT
IN) and channels 17–20 (EFF TN) to the ADAT DIRECT SEND.
