7. Move Slider A upwards to the next step in the Ext Clock setup routine. The
display says:
Write SMPTE Trk?
Press Yes
To generate a SMPTE time code signal at the SMPTE OUT jack suitable for
recording on tape, press YES; the Emulator II will output SMPTE time code from
the SMPTE output jack, starting at SMPTE start point 00:00:00:00 with a 30
frames-per-second rate (unless you specified a different frames-per-second rate
in step You may specify a different SMPTE start point (this must be done prior to
writing the track) as described in SEQUENCER SETUP 5, but no matter what the
SMPTE start point, it should start before the start point of your Sequence. For
example, if the SMPTE start point is 00:00:00:00, for best results the Sequence
should start at 00:00:01:00 or later.
Note that tempo is derived from the SMPTE track during playback, so it is not
necessary to set a specific tempo when generating or recording SMPTE. The
display now says:
Writing … Press
Enter to Stop
Use this signal to set record levels before rolling tape. Set about a -3 VU record
level. After setting levels, press ENTER to stop writing. Roll the tape in record
mode, leave a few seconds of blank tape, and then press YES to start recording
the time code on tape.
Always record more time code than you think you’ll need. You can erase it later if
you don’t use it, and if you ever need it you’ll be glad it’s there.
When finished, press ENTER to stop writing. Note: Writing activity “locks up” the
Emulator II. In order to proceed with other functions, de-activate the module. To
continue the Slider A setup procedure, re-activate EXT CLK.
Hint:
After recording SMPTE time code, play it back into the Emulator II via the
SMPTE IN jack and play a Sequence (see SEQUENCER PLAY) to make sure
that the time code was recorded at the right level and that there are no drop-outs
or other problems. With most -10 dBV standard gear, the signal will need to be
pre-amplified in order to drive the Emulator II. Most +4 dBm standard gear
delivers sufficient output to drive the Emulator II. If the SMPTE time code track
bleeds over into other channels o the tape, try lowering the record level a bit and
amplifying the signal coming from the tape output.
8. This completes the External Clock setup procedure. To review all settings, move
Slider A. Settings will stay as programmed unless changed or the instrument is
turned off.
