Chapter 8: MENU mode/TC SETUP menu

LTC start time editing [Edit LTC start]

Using the "Edit LTC start" menu item, you can set the desired LTC start time of a playback audio file. The LTC start time is recorded to the currently load file.

<Note>: The PD204 records only the start time of LTC, and the internal generator generates and outputs LTC with reference to the start time.

On a "BWF" file, the start time is recorded as "Time Reference" in "Broadcast Audio Exten- sion Chunk". Therefore, if you want to use this LTC in Digidesign Pro Tools, export the audio file to Pro Tools and make "User Time Code" effective.

1)When the unit is stopped, press the [SHIFT] key to light the [SHIFT] indicator, followed by the [TIME/TC SET] key.

The display now shows the TC SETUP menu screen.

2)Use the [MENU] dial to select the “Edit LTC start” menu item, and press the [ENTER/YES] key.

The LTC start time recorded on the current file is shown.

3)Press the [ENTER/YES] key again.

Initially, the subframe value flashes and you can now edit the LTC start time.
