Click “Mode” at top to edit UBits Mode. From the main screen, press in with the headphone encoder to modify the value of a UBit.
Use the arrows or scroll with the encoder to select.
To maintain accurate timecode count over a power cycle, ensure MixPre is not connected as a USB audio interface to a computer
during power up. It is best practice to rejam timecode devices after switching modes (Basic, Advanced or Custom) or after any
setting change requiring a reboot (32-bit float, MixAssist, Music mode or Ambisonics).
Timecode Modes
Free Run
Timecode runs continuously. Timecode continues counting accurately for up to four hours after power-down.
REC Run
Timecode runs while recording and is stationary when not recording. In this mode, timecode defaults to the last stationary value at
power-up. When switching to Record Run from another mode, the internal generator will stop at the last timecode value. Timecode
output can be used to trigger other equipment that supports timecode remote triggering to start and stop recording.
Time Of Day (TOD)
Alternatively known as 24 hr run mode, this is similar to free run mode except that the timecode generator is automatically loaded
with the time of day. Use TOD mode when you want the recorded WAV files to be timecode stamped with the time of day generated
by the internal clock.
BNC In, AUX In
Timecode can be derived from external timecode connected to the TC In BNC or to the 3.5 mm Aux/Mic In connector.
HDMI TC In
Many DSLR-style cameras output timecode via HDMI.
If HDMI TC In is selected without an HDMI source connected, the MixPre II will report missing sync. The MixPre II has two HDMI
timecode modes,. HDMI flag for Sony, Panasonic, Nikon, Canon and Blackmagic cameras and HDMI FUJIFILM for FUJIFILM
cameras.
LTC Timecode is not present on the MixPre-3 II and MixPre-6 II
Stereo Out or the MixPre-10 II BNC out when HDMI TC In is in use.
When set to HDMI TC In, the connected camera determines the sample rate of the MixPre II.
OFF
Setting TC Mode to Off disables the timecode feature. When Off, the time counter below the filename region on the home screen
displays elapsed time instead of timecode.
