Synchronizing the MV-8000 with a
connected external sequencer
You can connect the MV-8000 to a sequencer or hard disk recorder, and make them
play or record in synchronization.
Synchronizing with an external device
Here's how you can make an externally-connected sequencer or hard disk recorder
operate in synchronization with the MIDI Clock or MTC (MIDI Time Code) messages
transmitted by the MV-8000.
1.
Press .
The
SONG SETUP MENU screen
(p. 256) will
appear.
2.
With the cursor located in the upper row of
icons, press (Sync/MIDI). Alternatively,
select the SYNC/MIDI icon and press .
The
SYNC screen
(p. 259) will appear.
3.
Specify the synchronization reference signal.
Set the MIDI Clock parameter if you want to use MIDI Clock for synchronization, or
the MTC parameter if you want to use MTC for synchronization.
4.
Make synchronization settings on the external sequencer or hard disk
recorder (slave device) that is connected to the MV-8000.
For the procedure, refer to the owner's manual of the slave device.
5.
Press the MV-8000's PLAY.
The current time (measure - beat - tick) of the connected external device will
synchronize with the MV-8000's current time (measure - beat - tick), and the devices
will operate (play) in synchronization.
Synchronization
signal
MV-8000 setting External device setting
MIDI Clock
Set the Output parameter “On”
for the MIDI connector from
which you want to transmit MIDI
Clock.
Make settings so that
MIDI Clock will be
received (Slave).
MTC
Set the Output parameter “On”
for the MIDI connector or R-BUS
connector from which you want to
transmit MTC.
MTC synchronization is not possible
unless the same frame rate is selected
on both devices. On the MV-8000, this
is set by the Frame Rate parameter.
Make settings so that
MTC will be received
(Slave).
The MV-8000 cannot
synchronize to a
synchronization signal from an
external device; i.e., it cannot
operate as a Slave device.
When using synchronization,
it is convenient to use MMC
remote control capability as
well so that the transports of
the two devices will operate
together.
