• Editing the LTC start time
You can set the LTC start time at the "ABS 0" (beginning of an audio file) position to a desired
value. The start time of time code recorded with the [TC READY] key set to ON can be edited
later. If you record time code with the [TC READY] key set to OFF, “01H 00M 00S 00F 00SF”
(default) is recorded as the start time.
3. Use the jog dial or numeric keys to enter a desired value.
When using the jog dial to enter a value, you can move the (flashing) digit to be edited by using
the [SKIP/CURSOR] [|<<] / [>>|] keys.
When using the numeric keys to enter a time value, each number is entered from the right digit,
which moves left as additional digits are entered.
You can enter up to "23H 59M 59S **F" (in which ** is one smaller than the frame rate number).
4. After editing the start time, press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The start time is set and the display returns to show "Edit LTC Start?".
5. To exit the TC Setup mode, press the [EXIT/NO] key (or the [STOP] key).
To check the start time, press the [DISP TIME] key repeatedly until the display shows LTC.
1. Use the jog dial (or [SKIP/CURSOR] [|<<] / [>>|] keys) to select "Edit LTC Start?".
The current LTC time is shown.
2. Press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The subframe value of the LTC starts flashing, showing that it now can be edited.

3. Use the jog dial or numeric keys to trim the value.
You can trim the value in sub-frame unit between "-59s **f 99sf" and "+59s **f 99sf" (in which ** is
one smaller than the frame rate number).
After trimming the value, do not forget the next step!
4. After trimming the value, press the [ENTER/YES] key.
The trimmed value is set and the display returns to show "Trim?".
5. To exit the TC Setup mode, press the [EXIT/NO] key (or the [STOP] key).
1. Use the jog dial (or [SKIP/CURSOR] [|<<] / [>>|] keys) to select "Trim?".
The current chase offset is shown.
2. Press the [ENTER/YES] key.
"+00s 00f 00sf" appears, in which "sf" flashes.
Tips:
The unit records only the LTC start time. It generates and outputs time code in reference to the start time.
In a BWF file, the start time is stored in "Time Reference" in "Broadcast Audio Extension Chunk", while, in a SDII file,
it is stored in "Time Stamp" in "Region List Resource Spec".
Therefore, if you want to use this LTC by the Digidesign Pro Tools, make the User Time Code valid after import-
ing the audio file.
