Setup Notes
Tape must be formatted before use: this puts ABS-time onto the tape.
SY-88 Switch S1 #2: MIDI/9 PIN set to 9 PIN 1.
You may set the DA-88 to output timecode using the ABS-time or you may put a timecode
signal on the tape, in addition to the ABS-time, and use that instead.
Care must be taken in setting up timecode on the DA-88. There are two menus that need
to be set correctly. The ABS menu must be set to (P.in = tc)(even if there is no timecode
on the tape: the locate function will not work otherwise), and the TC menu must be set to
whichever code you are going to use (t.out = ABS or t.out = Tc).See Tascam DA-88 and
SY-88 Manual for more details.
