Synchronization 34

4 Synchronization

The MT4X has the ability to synchronize MIDI sequencers, rhythm programmers, and

other devices to the existing tracks on your tape. The following section describes some of

the advanced techniques you can employ.

When you create an overdub recording, you play along with the previously recorded

tracks - matching the tempo. This is easy for a guitarist, vocalist, or keyboard player, but

not so easy for a MIDI sequencer or rhythm machine. To synchronize MIDI instruments,

you need to provide a timecode signal that the MIDI instrument can follow. This involves

recording MIDI timecode onto a track using a technique called FSK (Frequency Shift

Keying). Typically, the best time to do this is when you are laying down your basic tracks

using a MIDI sequencer or rhythm machine to set the tempo.

Some MIDI sequencers and rhythm machines are already equipped with a SYNC OUT

connector. You can plug this type of machine directly into the MT4X to record FSK onto

one of the tracks.

If your MIDI sequencer or rhythm machine is not equipped with a SYNC OUT connector,

you may need a MIDI/FSK converter such as the Yamaha YMC10. You plug the MIDI/

FSK converter in between your MIDI sequencer or rhythm machine and the MT4X to

record FSK onto one of the tracks.
