Sending MIDI Time Code In Real Time While Playing
The MPC3000 may now send MIDI Time Code out over MIDI in real time as
a sequence or song plays. MIDI Time Code is an industry-standard for send-
ing SMPTE time code data over MIDI.
To send MIDI Time Code in real time as a sequence or song plays, go to the
Sync screen by pressing TEMPO/SYNC, then <Sync>:
===== Sync In ====== ==== Sync Out ====
Mode:MIDI CLOCK MIDI clock:OUT A
Shift early (ms):20 MIDI tm code:OUT A
MIDI Input:2
Song pointer:ON
==================== ==================
<SyncIn=OFF> <GenSMPTE>
Notice the new MIDI tm code field on the right side of the screen. It is a
choice field with five options:
OFF: No MIDI Time Code is sent.
OUT A: MIDI Time Code is sent out over MIDI output A.
OUT B: MIDI Time Code is sent out over MIDI output B.
OUT C: MIDI Time Code is sent out over MIDI output C.
OUT D: MIDI Time Code is sent out over MIDI output D.
