Timecode Support
The console will display the last timecode value sent by the tape machine. This means that,
for some machines, when you rewind the tape the displayed timecode will be that at which
the tape was stopped. This will be displayed until the tape is played again, at which point
the display will update to the new value being sent.
To cope with tape dropout the SMPTE reader ’flywheels’ for ten frames after which the
timecode stops.
Control Button Support
To provide feedback to the console transport control buttons the tape machine should
support ’tally’ messages (i.e., feedback from the tape machine of its status). If this is not
provided the console tries to interpret any timecode being sent to produce these ’tally’
messages internally.
MIDI timecode master
The DC2020 uses its own internal clock as a timecode reference for mixing. It also sends
out MIDI timecode. This mode would normally be used with sequencers which can chase
to MTC.
Transport Controls

Record Enable/Rehearse
