Robin Gillard Posted April 22, 2002 Share Posted April 22, 2002 Can anyone of you help me with this!? I want to automat the Yamaha O2R using the 2408 and G3 with DP. What do I need? Is a lightpipe connection between interface and mixer enough or do I need some sort of MIDI interface? Thanx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uh Clem Posted April 23, 2002 Share Posted April 23, 2002 automation sync to your recording requires: 1) communication between the recorder and O2R - either SMPTE , Midi Time Code (MTC), or MIDI Clock - you select that on the Automix page 1/6 on the O2R. 2) I have had best results making the recorder (or DAW) be the time code master using SMPTE or MTC. It is more common on a DAW to find MIDI ports than SMPTE, so MTC, connected by MIDI cables from time code Master out to timde code Slave in is the way to set it up - also illustrated on page 142 of the O2R pdf manual (available on the Yamaha WEB). If this is setup correctly, when your recorder or DAW starts playback, the automation starts as well and follows it. This works very well and has been dead consistent for me, even allowing me to auto-mute a few frames of noise. Speaking of frames, make sure you have both the recorder and O2R setup to the same Frame rate - typically 30 Frame Non-Drop for Audio. Make sure your recorder or DAW is setup up to generate time code during playback. Steve Powell - Bull Moon Digital www.bullmoondigital.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
