which typically begins recording a few frames after the command is received from the editor (the DA-98 begins recording immediately). Many edi- tors allow for this delay, and so the DA-98 can compensate for this.

1)From menu group 6, move the cursor to Rec Dly ( recording delay), and press SELECT:

2)Use the UP and DOWN keys to select a value from between 0 and 9 frames, or Auto. The value of the Auto setting depends on the emulation selected (see 9.4.5, “Device emulation”) as shown below:

NOTE

See section 11.1.3 of the DA-98 manual for further details of this function, including the way in which frame bound- aries are calculated and recognized.

9.4.7 Fast wind speed

98When a controller locates on a slave device, there are two ways in which this is achieved: a “locate” command, and a series of fast wind and shuttle commands.

To determine which command is used by your controller, and for further details regarding this function, follow the instructions in section 11.1.5 of the DA-98 manual.

The high (100 x) wind speed of the DA-98 means that if the second method is used, the tape will almost invariably overshoot each time and lever locate correctly. Accordingly, a slower (8 x) wind speed is provided which allows for location using the “wind and shuttle” mode.

1)From menu group 6, move the cursor to Fast Spd (fast speed) and press SELECT:

2)Use the UP and DOWN keys to select between x 100 and x 8 speeds.

9.4.8 Cue-up tally

98When locating in 9-pin command mode, the DA-98 will locate to the required position and then enter pause mode.

What is then returned to the controller can be either a Stop message, for use with controllers who will only issue their next command when a Stop signal is received, or a Still message for use with controllers which make a distinction between pause and Stop (e.g. LYNX II and Microlynx syn- chronizers).

See section 11.1.5 of the DA-98 manual for fur- ther details regarding this function.

1)From menu group 6, move the cursor to Cueup Tly (cueup tally), and press

SELECT:

C u e u p T a l l y

M a c h i n e 1

S t o p

2)Use the UP and DOWN keys to select between Stop and Still, as explained above.

9.4.9 MMC ID

98You can set a MMC ID (which also serves as the bus ID) for each DA-98 unit. This is not a MIDI channel number. The value may be between 001 and 127 or may be a universal

Receive All setting.

See section 11.2.1 of the DA-98 manual for fur- ther details regarding this function.
