VR800 Owner’s Manual (Changing the initial setting: SETUP mode)
Setting an MTC frame rate (“Frame Rate ?” menu)
The “Setting an MTC frame rate” menu enables you to set the frame rate for MTC output from the MIDI OUT connector of the VR800 to an external MIDI device. If you have already set the type of MIDI sync output signal to [MTC], you need to set the frame rate. Use the frame rate of MTC received by the external MIDI device (or sequence software).
• Initial setting | : [25 | F] (25 frames) |
• Setting range of frame rate | : [24 | F], [25 F], [30 DF], [30 F] |
*You can set the value for each Program individually.
*The settings can be saved and loaded as part of the song data.
*The settings are maintained after you turn off the power to the unit.
Setting an MTC frame rate
1.While the VR800 is stopped, press the SETUP key to enter SETUP mode.
2.Turn the JOG dial to select [Frame Rate (?)] ([e] and
[?]flash alternately.), then press the EXECUTE/YES
key.
The current frame rate setting appears on the display. Press the EXECUTE/YES key to turn off the flashing [?] character; the current setting flashes. The initial setting of [25 F] flashes as shown below.

3. Turn the JOG dial to enter the desired frame rate.
Rotating the JOG dial clockwise or
4. Press the EXECUTE/YES key.
The selected frame rate is stored and the display returns to the indication with a flashing [?] that appeared in step 2.
To cancel the operation, or to restore the setting obtained prior to the EXECUTE/YES key press, press the STOP button or the EXIT/NO key. Each time you press one of these keys, the VR800 returns to the previous hierarchy level of the menu, and finally exits SETUP mode and displays the previous Time Base.
Setting an MTC offset value (“Mtc Offset ?” menu)
The “Setting an MTC offset value” menu enables you to specify an offset time value - the difference between the time of MTC output from the VR800 and the ABS 00M 00S 00F 00SF time. You need to specify this value if you have selected [Mtc] for the “Setting MIDI sync output signal” menu.
With the initial setting of 00H 59M 57S 00F 00SF, for example, MTC of 59M 57S 00F 00SF is output at the ABS time 00M 00S 00F 00SF. You can also set an offset value from the 001 BAR 1 
00 CLK value (bar/beat) on the Tempo Map. Refer to the next section for information on MTC Offset mode.
• Initial setting: [00H: 59M: 57S: 00F: 00SF]
• Setting range of offset time : 00H: 00M: 00S: 00F: 00SF - 23H: 59M: 59S: 29F: 99SF
*You can set the value for each Program individually.
*The settings can be saved and loaded as part of the song data.
*The settings are maintained after you turn off the power to the unit.
