SMPTE Conversion
Warning: SMPTE and
MTC do not provide
sample sync for digital
I/O. You must use Word
Clock, S/PDIF or ADAT
sync.
One of the main functions of the Sync Daughter Card is to convert SMPTE (LTC) to
MIDI Time Code (MTC) and vice-versa. The term “Host MTC” refers to MTC, which is
generated or used by the host application (Cubase, etc.). MTC is also available at the
MIDI jack on the back of the Sync Card.
SMPTE Options
When the Sync Daughter Card is installed in your system a SMPTE button in the
PatchMix DSP mixer becomes visible. Pressing the SMPTE button brings up the SMPTE
window.
