“Word clock” refers to the clock that provides the basis of timing for digital audio signal processing.

If you connect external equipment such as a DAW system or HDR (Hard Disk Recorder) to a dig-

ital I/O card installed in a rear panel slot, this equipment must be synchronized to the same word

clock in order for digital audio signals to be sent and received. If digital audio signals are trans-

ferred in an unsynchronized state, the data will not be transmitted or received correctly, and noise

may be present in the signal, even if the sampling rates are the same.

Speciﬁcally, you must ﬁrst decide which device will transmit the reference word clock for the

entire system (the word clock master), and then set the remaining devices (the word clock

slaves) so that they synchronize to the word clock master. If you wish to use the LS9 as a word

clock slave that is synchronized to the word clock supplied from an external device, you must

specify the appropriate clock source (the port through which the word clock is obtained).

The following steps show how to select the clock source that the LS9 will use.
