When you change the VR800 digital-in clock setting from “ASYnC (asynchronous)” to “SYnC (synchronous),” be sure to set
the clock setting of the digital mixer to “internal.” For example, if the VR800 digital-in clock is set to [SynC] and the digital mixer
clock setting to “digital in (or word),” a digital loop will be generated between these two devices, preventing normal recording.
Remember that if the VR800’s digital-in clock is set to [SYnC], the Vari-pitch function will be disabled.

When you set a disk used on a different model as the current drive, the digital-in clock setting defaults to [SYnC (synchro-
nous)]. In this case, check the display when the VR800 starts, and adjust the digital-in clock setting, if necessary. Refer to the
“SETUP mode” in the User’s Guide for more information on the digital-in clock setting.

Connecting an analog mixing console
You may connect an analog mixing console to the VR800 via an optional VC-8 (ADAT/ANALOG converter)
as shown below. In this example, an analog mixing console with eight BUS OUTs is connected to the VR800.
Using the VC-8 enables you to make recordings without re-patching the cables, regardless of whether you
are using a four-BUS OUT or two-BUS OUT analog mixer. (For more information on the VC-8, refer to the
User’s Guide included in the VC-8 package.)
