not some external device (e.g. an RS-422 or MIDI controlled playback machine)
When the Hard Chase toggle button is active, Pyramix will only playback when valid time code
is detected on the chosen time code input port. If there is a jump in the incoming time code,
Pyramix will adjust to the new time code and begin playback from the new time code position.
Pyramix will run on its own internal time code for up to 1 frame if there is a drop out in the time
code. If no valid time code is detected after that time, playback will stop.
