20 Hook
uP.s
_
The way in which the MIDI cables are connected will depend on whether you use just a sequencer
or a tape machine and sequencer.
The following drawings show how your MIDI equipment is
normally connected in each case.
Tapeless studios
At the heart of the tapeless studio is the sequencer so normally the sequencer should be the mas-
ter which generates MTC. In this case the console should be connected as shown below. You
can see that the sequencer is the master and the hard disk recorders, samplers and console are all
slaves. (If your sequencer can only read MTC or you want to control the sequencer from the
console then the console should be the master, see the hook up in the tutorial section.)
The
console timecode source should be set to MIDI 1 and MTC should be sent to MIDI port 2
if
you
have a hard disk system which requires MTC.
