2-9. MTC Frame Rate Setting (“Frame Rate?”)
If you choose MTC as the MIDI sync signal in the previous section “2-8. MIDI Sync Signal
Output Setting”, you need to set up this mode.
You can set up the frame rate of the MTC generated for external MIDI equipment such as
computer based sequencer software. Choose the frame rate so that the external MIDI
device can receive it.
* See page "120" “MIDI Synchronization Function” for details of the MTC sync.
<Note>
The D-160 will still run the time counter in PLAY mode even after the ABS END. Thus, it will
continue generating the MTC even if you have not recorded anything.
* Initial setting : 25 Frames
* Available setting : 24, 25, 30df, 30nd,29df, 29nd
* This setting is applicable song by song.
* This setting can be saved or loaded as a part of the song data.
* The setting is memorized even when the power is off.
*
Make sure to choose the right program before setting up this mode.
