RC-2424 SPECIFIC FUNCTIONS
[66] MACRO KEYS
These keys allow key sequences of up to 99 strokes to be stored and recalled by a single key.
To use this function press and hold one of the eight MACRO KEYS [66] for one second, Function Key Record will
be temporarily displayed in the LCD [18]. All subsequent key strokes will be stored in that Macro Location.
To close Macro recording press the same Macro Key again and Function Key Close will temporarily be displayed
ending the recording of key strokes.
To play back a Macro simply press the Macro key where the desired key sequence is stored.

(NOTE: Macro keys are used for setup and editing functions. They do not store key strokes with timing information
and should not be used for punching or other timing-critical operations.)
[72] MACHINE SELECT/RECORD STATUS
When a MACHINE SELECT KEY is pressed, the corresponding machine of a multi-machine configuration will
become the active machine on the RC-2424 making it possible to change settings on that machine. Possible
selections are 1 – 6. The yellow LED above the Machine Select Keys will light to indicate the currently selected
machine. The red LED will blink when any track on that machine is armed for recording and light solid when
actually recording. For example it is possible to have a track armed for recording on machine #3 with its red LED
blinking and control the transport with machine #1 as the active machine on the RC-2424 with its yellow LED lit.
Only one MX-2424 can be viewed with its yellow LED lit on the RC-2424 at a time.
When the TL SYNC button is pressed is becomes possible to adjust the parameters of the TASCAM TL-Sync
synchronizer. A TL-Sync must be connected and active on the TL-Bus for this button to have any effect. (For more
detail please refer to the TL-Sync operations manual.)
Pressing MAST immediately makes the Master machine connected to the TL-Bus the active machine on the RC-
2424. This Master machine could be an MX-2424 or a TL-Sync. Pressing <SHIFT><MAST> makes the currently
active machine on the RC-2424 the Master machine.
[58] REMOTE
The cable to connect the RC-2424 to the TL-Bus goes here. Total remote bus length including all cabling is 100
meters.
[65] TL-SYNC
These LED indicators are reserved for use with the TL-Sync. Please refer to the TL-Sync operations manual for
more detail.
