Can Sonar sync to external word clock?

[drumsagogo]

I want to sync a daw to my Otari MTR90II 16tk. I already have a microlynx synchronizer, and from what I have read, I need to make sure the software I buy can lock to the external word clock which the microlynx would be sending it.

I'd be using a lynx two soundcard which has word clock I/O. Does anyone know if sonar is capable of this? The other software I'm considering are Protools lite and Nuendo.

Hi drumsagogo,

Sonar can sync to MIDI/SMPTE Time Code or MIDI Sync. If your external device or sound card can convert the word clock to Time Code, then it should work. But I haven't tried it.

Regards,
Scott

Yes, the microlynx can supply both SMPTE or MTC. I guess I'd be in business then.

THanks.
