SMPTE Conversion

One of the main functions of the Sync Daughter Card is to convert SMPTE (LTC) to MIDI Time Code (MTC) and vice-versa. The term “Host MTC” refers to MTC, which is generated or used by the host application (Cubase, etc.). MTC is also available at the MIDI jack on the back of the Sync Card.

Warning: SMPTE and MTC do not provide sample sync for digital I/O. You must use Word Clock, S/PDIF or ADAT sync.

SMPTE Features

•Conversion of SMPTE to MTC quarter-frame messages & full-frame messages. Constant quarter-frame messages are generated with steady SMPTE data input.

Occasional MIDI full-frame messages are generated when SMPTE contains data dropouts.

•Conversion of MTC (quarter frame & full frame) messages from the host computer to SMPTE out.

Simultaneous SMPTE and MTC output when receiving MTC from the host computer

•Outputs SMPTE and MTC striping data.

SMPTE Start Time and type can be set via System Settings dialog box.

SMPTE Options

When the Sync Daughter Card is installed in your system a SMPTE button in the PatchMix DSP mixer becomes visible. Pressing the SMPTE button brings up the SMPTE window.
