DA-88 setting
Since the DA-88 receives digital input data from the TDIF-1, press the DIGITAL IN switch on the control panel.
The machine ID number of the DA-88 is 0 for the wordclock master unit. These machine ID num- bers are set at 0, 1, 2, and 3 using the rear rotary switch in the sequential order of the SYNC cable connections attached from SYNC OUT to SYNC IN.
(* For the DA-98 and 38, machine ID numbers are set at 1, 2, 3, 4 in the sequential order of the connections.)
Press the CHASE switch on the DA-88’s front panel with the machine IDs 2 and 3 to select CHASE to ‘ON’ so that synchronization can be performed with the master DA-88.
Set the sampling rate of the wordclock master unit to INT 48k or INT 44.1k. The sampling rate of the DA-88 is automatically changed to the sampling rate of the tape being used.
No playback is produced when ALL INPUT is ON; For playback, ALL INPUT should be set to OFF.
For MMC control of the DA-88 from the WR-DA7, set the MODE dip switch #2 to 0 (OFF) on the rear panel of the SY-88 in order to make the MIDI port effective.
To produce a timecode output from the DA-88 in synchronization with the digital audio data set the MODE dip switch #5 to 0 (OFF) on the rear panel of the SY-88.
To output tape-recorded timecode from the DA-88, set the MODE dip switch 6 to 1 (ON) on the rear panel of the SY-88 Sync board.
