Hello, can anybody share some advice about syncing the Fostex up to my Cubase5 system?
Right now, I have SPDIF going 2 channels out of the Fostex and into CUBASE.....now, do I need to add extra MIDI cables up to sync the two? I was under the idea from the manuals that it would be synced throught the SPDIF cables??? but it doesn't seem to be working...
any insight on this would be much appreciated since I find this topic not really covered to well in either manual.
1- Can syncing be done through the SPDIF cable?
2- DO I need MIDI cables to sync?
3- Which should slave and which should master?
4- WIll I have both MIDI cables AND SPDIF cables hooked up to sync the VF-16 up to CUBASE?
5- WHat can be done with this syncing of the units that i may not alrteady be aware of?
The reason I want to sync them togetehr is to
a)spend the day being frustrated,
b)I think it will make recording on both untis att he same time much easier??
thanks,
