    Tascam BR-20T Story...

    I think I explained it a little awkward, so I'll try again: I'm sure the microlynx pulls down some internal reference to match the incoming MTC in VSO Master mode, but it won't be the fixed speed crystal. Then the other machines are are locked to the master and follow it. My earlier comment...

    Short followup: The topic "Using Pro Tools with the Micro Lynx" on pages 9-4 to 9-10 of the manual is a good read, too. Pro Tools may have been the only DAW that might have been able to serve as master or slave for the micro lynx in 95, but I don't see why other DAW software shouldn't be able...

    Hey, Well, at least it settles down ;) That hasn't happened with the other setting before, at least not in my case. For me the experience is quite similar but as I only have "t" and "M" right now and no atr, it's only the "t" that needs between 1 and 30 seconds to lock. But then it locks and...

    Just making sure...

    I had to check up on that recently to calibrate my tape deck and found the following explanation on bnoack.com quite useful: There are several tables on the page for dBV - voltage ratio and dBu voltage ratio which puts +4dBu at 1.2277V (RMS) and -10dBV at 0.316V. I'm not sure on how to measure...

    I found it in Operational Feature (page 6-18 for me). My manual is dated 04/13/95. The section with the two paragraphs in question is called "Setting Variable Speed Playback" and succeeds the Program Macro stuff. The next section "Code Only Master Operation" delves a little deeper into what we...

    Danny, that is a great video! Really nice seeing your setup works and I like the tune! If you have the time to check if the VSO Master setting works for you, that would be cool. I still need to fabricate the accessory cable and that will take some time as I need to wait for the digi-key stuff so...

    Hey Danny, no, you didn't dream that. When using IntFix, I am able to achieve "L" state, but only if I enable ACG servo for MIDI resolve. Otherwise I encounter the same weird relais chatter you hear happening when watching Cory's videos. I suspect it is the same clacky noise that you describe...

    I think I got it. Danny what's your TCG System Ref? I was wondering what you are doing differently since you are at least getting a lock after some preroll but we were not getting a lock and just whacky clickety-relay jive. There are 5 to 6 options available: IntFix IntVar ExtVid Aux VSO...

    EDIT: FF to the next post, I think I got it. Good introduction :) It's time to have a good look at the results. Yes, 30 seconds should be enough. That's good advice if the system would lock. Cory's and my system don't lock after the subframe error overflow at .00 though. That's the main...

    Tascam BR-20T Story...

    Just a thought, you did say that your microlynx doesn't have the ACG card so maybe the option in MIDI is not available. That would suck and I don't know how else I would resolve to MIDI as master as I had the same problems before I activated that servo option. Since I don't know if what I see...

    Tascam BR-20T Story...

    Hey Cory, don't give up yet. Otherwise I'll gladly take those lynxes :D I had exactly the same problems as you described. Clickety-click shuffle... Then I fooled around with the ACG but I disconnected it again, so I'm not using it, just as Danny pointed out. I didn't reset the configuration...

    Tascam BR-20T Story...

    Hey Danny, Yeah I got really interested in the whole subject yesterday with you two going over it. Too bad my cable assembly plans for me didn't work out the way I intended to but I think I'll order the parts from digikey and be up and running in a few days. Yes I can definitely repeat the...

    Found some connector assemblies from Molex (C-Grid III connection system) but still no nice hood/shell: Crimp housing Crimp contact The only catalog distributor I could find is digikey and I could put together some housings and sockets: Digi-Key housing Digi-Key socket The connector...

    Danny, that's exactly how I understood it from the manual and it makes perfect sense to me, but... :D ...I had problems getting the microlynx to sync on anything other than strict 30 FPS MTC (read: follow my reaper running wild). I checked the error for the machine in question by pressing the...

    If you consider inflation, the budget might be about $ 206 by now :D Cheers Tim

    whats wrong with this mix? indie/rock (goodquality)

    I know the problem, you just need to move the whole drumkit. I mean you need to move all parts on all drum tracks. It's just as easy as moving the part on one track. Just make sure you have all the drum tracks selected when you split and quantize. I'm using reaper and you need to do a two step...

    building a gobo!

    Great info! I was thinking of installing wheels under one of the corner bass traps I am planning to build. I'll need to move it constantly since the door is near the corner. The idea for wheels on gobos is great! Do you have some pictures? What wheels did you use? Cheers Tim
