TASCAM HS-8
MASTER
Select the master clock to use.
INT (default value): Use this unit’s internal clock.
WORD: Synchronize with the word clock input through
the
WORD/VIDEO IN
connector.
VIDEO: Synchronize with the video clock input through
the
WORD/VIDEO IN
connector.
CH1-2DIN - CH7-8DIN: Synchronize with the clock of the
digital signal (AES1-8, AES A-B, or ADAT1-8) selected as
the digital input for CH1-2, 3-4, 5-6, or 7-8.
You cannot select an input as the master clock if the
sampling rate converter is ON for that input.
The second line of the button shows the name of the
selected digital input signal.
NOTE
A check mark appears on the button of the currently active
•
master clock.
If synchronization from an external clock is interrupted, the
•
unit’s internal clock becomes active. In this case, a check mark
appears on the INT button to show that it has become the
active clock, and an “x” appears on the button of the selected
external clock that was lost.

Make setting related to synchronization.
STATUS
Shows the status of the currently loaded project’s
sampling frequency and clock synchronization.
Play Fs
When playing a take with a sampling frequency of 48 kHz,
48 kHz pull-up, or 48 kHz pull-down, the unit can be made
to synchronize with an external clock by setting it to play
back with pull-up or pull-down.
Depending on the combination of Project sampling
frequency and Play sampling frequency settings, the unit
will operate with the Fs shown below.

Set this to OFF before recording. Recording is not possible when set

OFF, “Cannot REC” appears in a warning pop-up window.
TC Chase
Use to turn playback synchronized with external timecode
ON/OFF (default value: OFF). Set it to ON, when you want
to match the timing of this unit’s audio with a timecode
master unit (audio recorder or video).
You can also set timecode offset (TC Offset) with the
timecode master device. Touch the “EDIT” button to open
the “TC Offset” screen where you can set the offset value
in a range between “−23: 59: 59.29” and “+23: 59: 59.29”
(default value: “00: 00: 00.00”).
NOTE
TC Chase can also be turned ON/OFF by pressing the SHIFT and
CALL keys at the same time.
TC Rechase
Turn this function, which re-synchronizes when
synchronization with external timecode becomes
inaccurate, ON/OFF (default value: “OFF”). To set the
amount of inaccuracy that triggers rechase, touch the
knob and turn the DATA dial to select a value in frames of
1/3, 1, 2, 5 or 10 (default value: 2 frames).
