MIDI remote control

From the SYNC/MIDI menu, this REMOTE option allows
the setting of a number of parameters connected with
remote control of the 2488MKII.

MIDI messages can be used for remote control of the
2488MKII’s mixer, effects and recorder.

MMC MODE

Sets the transmission mode for

MMC

(MIDI Machine Control).

OFF: MMC is not transmitted or received.

MASTER: The 2488MKII is an MMC master.

SLAVE: The 2488MKII is an MMC slave.

When the 2488MKII is an MMC master, MMC com-
mands are sent from its

MIDI OUT

, for remote control of

external MMC slaves (including other 2488MKII units).
When the 2488MKII acts as an MMC slave, MMC com-
mands are received through its

MIDI IN

, and external

MIDI devices or another 2488MKII can remotely control
the 2488MKII's recorder.

MMC Device ID

Sets the MMC device ID. Select 1 to 127 or ALL. MMC
commands are sent and received between masters and
slaves with the same device IDs, but when ALL is selected,
MMC commands are sent and received for all IDs.

NOTE

MMC is used for remote transport control of MMC-
equipped devices, while MTC (MIDI Time Code) is used
to synchronize MTC-equipped devices.

Note that the MMC mode and MMC device ID are not
related to mixer and effect remote control.
