10-3 TIMECODE OUT SELECT
ABS Time To Timecode Conversion Facility :
This makes it possible to slave the DA-88 to external
timecodes without pre-striping timecode.
The ABS time can be converted into any type of timecode
that the SY-88 supports. The OO:O~OOzOO point of ABS
time becomes the OOzOOzOO:OO point of timecode. When
selecting the 24, 25 or 30 fps format, the ABS time
numbcn match exactly with the timecode numbers all the
time (except the frame numbers), But in the 29.97 fps
format code numbers will not match; in the case of the
2Y.Y7 Non-Drop frame code, it will read 5Y minutes, 56
seconds when the ABS time counts up to 1 hour, and the
discrepancy will increw with continuing time.
-
The converted timecode is sat out of the TIME CODE
OUT jack the same as with timecodes read off tape or
produced by the timecode generator.
Advantages of this facility :
As said above, thwc is oo need for you to stripe
timecode in order to sync DA-88’s up to external
timecodes, Under some conditions, offsets will be
necessary and these will be entered between the
master and DA-88 timecode numbers.
When work tapes copied from the same video tape are
used as mater tapes for audio sweetening in multiple
studios, and where DA-88s a.re used as slave
machines, the final mixdown can be achieved simply
by syncing DA-88s underABS time control.
To convert the ABS time into timecodes, proceed as
follows.
I. Access the Playback T/C menu. It will look like this :
2. Press + or-The LTC will change to ABS
For the TIME CODE OUT jack to carry timecode
directly from the DA-88 tape or from the SY-88
timccode generator, witch the “ABS” back to “LTV.
