25 Before Starting Playback monitoring “Playback monitoring” means to monitor the playback sound of the tracks (only Real tracks). That is, you are monitoring the playback sound on the track, not the sound being recorded to the track.
26 Before Starting Signal flow (The P AN knob function and Stereo Bus) The FD-8 is equipped with an eight-channel mixer function, which enables you to mix and record eight sound sources into stereo signal. The following diagram is designed to help you visualize the signal flow of the FD-8.
27 Before Starting <Notes on digital recording> During analog recording, “0 files” are not created since silence does not create “data 0.” However , during S/P DIF and adat digital recording, the FD-8 records “data 0” (this is called “mute recording”).

MIDI Synchronization 77 MIDI clock sync system You can configure the sync system to use a stand-alone sequencer synchronizing as a MIDI clock slave by inserting time signature settings and tempo settings at any position in a song using a programmable Tempo Map of the FD- 8.
MIDI Synchronization 78 1. Set the channel 1-8 INPUT SEL switches to [TRK]. 2. Set the SELECT OR in the monitor section to [L/R+MON]. 3. Raise the master faders L/R to [7-8].
MIDI Synchronization 79 MTC sync/Machine Control system This section explains a synchronization system controlled by a computer using MMC (MIDI Machine Control) and controlled by MTC (MIDI time code) output from the FD-8. The FD-8 adds a given offset value to the ABS time on the disk and outputs the information as MTC of a given frame rate.
MIDI Synchronization 80 Overdubbing 1. Overdub on tracks 1 - 8 as explained in “Overdubbing” of the “MIDI clock sync system” section. Mixing down while syncing the MIDI sound sources 1.
MIDI Synchronization 81 Connecting an external device 1. Connect the MIDI OUT jack of a computer running sequence software to the MIDI IN jack of the FD-8. The connected computer should be running sequence software that supports MMC/MTC. Setting up the external device 1.
MIDI Synchronization 82 Checking the chase and lock operation 1. When you play the sequence software, the [MTC] indicator on the display lights up, and the flashing [SLA VE] lights up continuously , which indicates that chase and lock is complete. At this time, make sure that MTC output from the sequence software is being displayed on the FD-8.
MIDI Synchronization 83 Sync system with “adat” by the slave mode This section will explain the sync system using “adat” equipment. * Initialize FD-8.
MIDI Synchronization 84 * Refer to “Slave mode setting” in Setup mode on page 106 and “Slave mode type setting” in Setup mode on page 107, for the operation and more information. 5. Press the TIME BASE SEL key to select the MTC indication for the T ime Base.
85 Saving and Loading Song Data Outline of the save/load operation The FD-8 has a Save/Load function for song data, which enables you to save the recorded song data (including SETUP data) to a connected backup media, such as a DAT machine or adat. You can also load the saved data from a DAT or adat to the current drive disk in the FD-8.
