• MTC Pickup Delay field: This parameter should generally be set to zero, to ensure the<br />

quickest possible pickup time while <strong>Logic</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> is in MTC (MIDI Time Code) Sync mode.<br />

There are, however, some devices that seem to transmit imprecise MTC commands<br />

when first started. As a result, synchronization may be unreliable, and there could be<br />

an offset every time synchronization is established. In such situations, you can set a<br />

delay time before incoming MTC is picked up. Essentially, <strong>Logic</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> will ignore the<br />

incoming MTC commands that occur in this time period. A (frame) value of 25 to 30<br />

corresponds to a delay of about one second, depending on the frame rate. Use this<br />

parameter when synchronized to hard disk recorders and other devices, if<br />

synchronization doesn’t appear to be consistent.<br />

• Delay MTC Transmission By field: This parameter allows you to delay the transmission<br />

of MIDI timecode. Negative values result in MTC being transmitted earlier. This enables<br />

you to compensate for any reaction delays (to incoming MIDI timecode) in external<br />

MTC slave devices.<br />

• MMC Uses pop-up menu: Choose between the following settings:<br />

• MMC standard messages: The MIDI MMC specification is strictly followed.<br />

• Old Fostex Format: The old Fostex format is used for MIDI Machine Control.<br />

• Output ID (Transport) checkbox: The All checkbox sends MMC to all ports. The field to<br />

the right allows you to specify an output port ID.<br />

• Input ID (Transport) checkbox: The All checkbox sends MMC to all ports. The field to the<br />

right allows you to specify an input port ID.<br />

• Transmit Locate Commands When: “Pressing Stop twice” checkbox: Enables transmission<br />

of MMC Locate commands when the Stop command is pressed twice (using the Stop<br />

button in the Transport bar, or using the Stop key command).<br />

• Transmit Locate Commands When: “Dragging regions or events” checkbox: If this option<br />

is enabled and <strong>Logic</strong> <strong>Pro</strong> is stopped (not in Playback or Record mode), MMC Locate<br />

commands are sent with the position of a region that is dragged in the Arrange area.<br />

• “Transmit Record enable commands for audio tracks” checkbox: If this option is selected,<br />

MMC Record Enable/Disable commands are also sent when audio tracks are<br />

record-enabled (armed) or disabled. In addition, any received MMC Record Enable<br />

commands will set the record-enable status of audio tracks.<br />

• MIDI Sync <strong>Pro</strong>ject Settings button: Click this button to open the MIDI Sync <strong>Pro</strong>ject Settings<br />

window.<br />
