Use the
DATA ENTRY
knob to choose the
word clock source for the TM-D1000.
The external word clock source may be the
TDIF-1 A
source, the
Digital
In A
, or the
Word Sync In
con-
nection. If the optional expansion board is fitted,
the additional digital inputs, except for digital
input
C
, which contains a sampling frequency
convertor, may also be selected as word clock
sources.
Remember that all other digital audio devices in
the system must also be set as slaves (except for
the word clock master) and must be connected so
that the word clock is transmitted to them.
NOTE
When using the TM-D1000 with a DTRS or
other recorder in varispeed mode, the TM-
D1000 must be configured as a word clock
slave. We suggest that you use the Word
Sync In as the clock source when using the
TM-D1000 as a word clock slave with DTRS
recorders, except with DA-38 recorders.
When using a DA-38 recorder in varispeed
mode, the only available word clock source for
the TM-D1000 is the
TDIF-1 A
source.
This is because the DA-38 must act as a word
clock master in varispeed mode, and has no
word clock output jack.
A complete discussion of digital audio is outside the
scope of this guide. You should consult one of the
many excellent books on the subject if you are in any
doubt.
