Synchronizing Performances
with a Digital Recorder or
MIDI Sequencer (Sync Mode)
You can synchronize the DR-670’s performances
with digital recorders, MIDI sequencers, rhythm
machines, and other such devices.
Master and Slave
When synchronizing two or more devices, one is
made the “master” device and all others “slaves.”
fig.09-05
When the master device is started or stopped, a
MIDI message for that operation is transmitted.
The slave or slaves then start or stop in
accordance with the transmitted MIDI message.
Furthermore, timing clock data corresponding to
the tempo is transmitted by the master device.
Slave devices synchronize their performances to
this timing clock.
Other data transmitted from the master device
to slave devices includes song numbers (Song
Select) and the position of song performances
(Song Position Pointer).
