VM200 User’s Guide

Using ADAT OUT

You can use an optical cable to connect the ADAT OUT connector on

the VM200 to an ADAT-compatible recorder, such as the Fostex

VR800 digital multitrack recorder.

The ADAT OUT connector outputs the same information as the REC

BUSS, but in digital form. The left channel of the REC BUSS stereo

signal is output to tracks 1, 3, 5, and 7, and the right channel to

tracks 2, 4, 6, and 8.

You can send channel 1–8 signals to ADAT DIRECT using the

ROUTING

function page. The channel 1 signal is output to ADAT track 1, the

channel 2 signal is output to ADAT track 2, etc.

In this configuration, the VM200 is the word clock master and the

multitrack recorder or ADAT is the slave.

Set the Word Clock parameter on the VM200 to “INT44.”

For more information on the master word clock setup, refer to “Set-

ting the Master Word Clock” on page 162.

To route a digital signal to ADAT OUT, follow the steps below:

channel layer.

The

2.

The

ROUTING

function page features a 3-by-20 matrix. The top row

of the matrix, labelled “DIRECT,” indicates which channels have

been sent to the ADAT OUT.

Note:

The VM200 is unable to route signals from channels 9–16 (ADAT

IN) and channels 17–20 (EFF TN) to the ADAT DIRECT SEND.
