You can adjust the timecode rate to be different to the rate selected for the
originally recorded data. The unit will then ‘cross-code’ the two rates so that
all cue points and locate points remain correct.

The GX9000 can generate still frame LTC when stopped. This can cause
problems with some older synchronisers which don’t expect a machine to be
able to read timecode at 0 speed.
