TIME BASE
Reference 5 – 53
❐
As dropout compensation has now been taken over by Time Base, Nuendo
should also be set to a short dropout compensation time.
Parameter Explanation
TCVAL=xxF
Time Code Validity – The time for which a valid, continuous Time
Code must be connected to the input, before this will be validated by
Time Base (e.g. to allow analog tape machines to get up to their
proper speed before there is any attempt to sync to them).
The time is set in Frames.
Parameter Explanation
DROP=xxF Dropout compensation – The regenerated Time Code continues for
the time set in Frames, so that short Time Code dropouts can be
bridged over. This time should be set as short as possible, so that
Time Code errors on tapes can be recognized early in the project.
