Machine control setup
With the ALT indicator lit, press the REMOTE key.
Use the first soft key to bring up this screen:
This allows the setting of various machine control
parameters.
Edit Frames
When this is set on, location memories, etc. are
edited to frame accuracy. When it is set to off, loca-
tion settings are made to second accuracy.
Cueing mode
When this is on (checked), the FF and REW keys act
as shuttle keys. Press the key in play mode to enter
fast cueing shuttle mode, and release it to re-enter
play mode.
In non-play mode, these keys function normally,
even with this option selected.
Play Mode
This function determines the way in which the PLAY
key works in conjunction with the location facilities.
There are three settings:
Auto , Deferred and Immediate .
AUTO The PLAY indicator flashes as the unit is
locating to a location point. When the location point
is reached, playback starts automatically. However, if
the
PLAY key is pressed before the location point is
reached, the unit stops locating and starts playing.
DEFERRED The unit stops after location is com-
pleted. However, if the
PLAY key is pressed while the
unit is locating, the
PLAY indicator flashes, and play-
back starts when the location point is reached.
NOTE
Because an open MMC connection cannot determine
when the locate point has been reached, deferred play
is not possible for a machine controlled in this way.
IMMEDIATE The unit stops after location is com-
pleted. If the
PLAY key is pressed while the unit is
locating, the machine goes straight into play mode,
without locating.
Play Command Type
Use this option to make the play commands from the
DM-4800’s MIDI Machine Control compatible with
the unit being controlled.
There are two options: True (02h) and Deferred (03h) .
Consult the documentation of your other equipment
for details of compatibility.
