System Clocking Master Clock
When configured with an IF-FW/DM MKII, the mixer must be the
master clock relative to the computer DAW. The mixer itself may
be clocked to an external source other than the DAW.
Clock Settings
When switching the clock rate of the mixer, or of any external
device that is the clock master in your system, the following steps
are required for correct operation:
1. Stop any audio playing from the DAW or computer.
2. Close the DAW application.
3. Change the sample rate on the mixer (or external clock
source)
4. Re-launch the DAW application.
96k & 88.2k Operation
The IF-FW/DM MKII supports the full 32x32 input output
configuration at high sampling rates. This will put extra strain on
your computer’s CPU and OS, so a higher latency audio buffer
setting or an Input/Output setting of 16 channels may be required.
For these sampling rates, TASCAM recommends the following
computer specifications:
Windows
• 2GHz Pentium® 4 or higher.
• 1GByte Memory
Mac
• Any G5 PPC Mac, or Intel Mac 1.5 GHz or higher.
• 1GByte Memory.
