The unit of measurement is the Hertz (Hz).Running the system time code generator so that time code isavailable at the rear panel GEN OUT jack.A time code generator. Each synchronizer has a time codegenerator. This generator receives its speed reference from one ofthe internal or external sources.Generator reference. May also be referred to as reference source.A group of machines that have a defined positional relationship.Machines are placed in group mode for synchronization. Machinesin a group will operate together as if they were a single transport.See Groups.A track of multitrack tape adjacent to the sync track (such asSMPTE or Control Track), which is left unrecorded in order toprevent the time code from bleeding onto the audio programmaterial.Hours:Minutes:Seconds:Frames. A SMPTE time code address orvalue.Completely clear the synchronizers RAM. Press and hold the CLRkey while you power-up the module.A system speed reference that is derived from the unit’s internalcrystal. This reference should be selected when an externalreference (video or word clock) is not required.A technique used to start a time code generator from anotherrunning time code. It can be used to recreate missing time code orto external existing time code on tape.The Jam Time Code or Jam Sync function. See Jam Sync.Keyboard Control Unit.

Time code information encoded inbinary coded decimal (BCD) form which is recorded as an audiosignal on a designated track of a VTR or an ATR.Machine refers to the generic concept of tape record/playbackhardware.The wide ranging field of transport control. This covers basictransport operation, synchronization and more complex functionssuch as electronic editing.Preprogrammed or user programmed keys permitting complex keysequences to be stored and executed by pressing a single key.Sometimes known as smart keys.Musical Instrument Digital Interface. This serial data language isused by microprocessors in synthesizers, sequencers, drum machines,signal processors, and computers. It provides musicalpitch and rhythm information, synthesizer performanceparameters, song position markers, stop/start/continue commandsfor sequencers and computers, and synchronizing data calledMIDI Clock, which is based on 24 pulses per quarter-note. MIDIis frequently used with SMPTE for sync-to-tape functions.MIDI is transmitted between microprocessors at 32.125 kBits persecond. It can also be used by lighting systems and mixing consoles.MIDI Time CodeMotion ControlsMTCMultitrackN/AA MIDI system real time message that assigns a unique addressfor a specific moment in time. MIDI Time Code takes two framesto transmit a complete address in bursts of data that aretransmitted every 1/4 frame.The basic set of six transport control keys (Play, Stop, Rec, Reh,Rwd & FF) and the six additional transport control functions (Loc,Cue, Allstop, Rlb, replay & Edit).See MIDI Time Code.A tape machine, analog or digital which has more than two audiotracks.Not available.
