TASCAM FW-1082 Setup Guide
Clock source setting
In a digital audio setup, there should be one and only
clock master.
The FW-1082 may act as the clock master for the
whole system, or it may act as a slave, taking a clock
signal from the
COAXIAL input.
This is how you select the clock source:
1 Put the FW-1082 into MON MIX mode by press-
ing the MON MIX key which then lights.
2 Press one of the clock rate keys to select the
sampling frequency:
• 96kHz (EQ HI–AUX 1/5)
• 88.2kHz (EQ HI MID–AUX 2/6)
• 48kHz (EQ LO MID–AUX 3/7)
• 44.1 kHz (EQ LOW MID–AUX 4/8)
3 Press either of the clock source keys:
• INTERNAL ( EQ/PAN ) – Internal Clock
• D IN ( AUX1–4 ) – S/PDIF Input
When the FW-1082 is in MON MIX mode, these rate
and source keys and indicators light to display the
current clock settings. Note that these keys have no
meaning in
MON MIX mode other than clock settings.
As an alternative, you can use the software control
panel to select the clock source and sampling fre-
quency:
Expected Sample Rate If the S/PDIF input is
selected as the clock source and it does not have a
usable clock signal, the
CLOCK indicator flashes to
indicate a problem, and the unit switches to its own
internal clock and waits for a valid clock signal. If
the sample rate is off by 3% or more, the FW-1082
switches to the incoming clock, and the nearest sam-
ple rate LED blinks slowly.
Other connections
Footswitch Connect an optional footswitch (e.g.
the TASCAM RC-30P) to the FOOT SW jack).
You can use this footswitch as a punch controller
with your DAW software.
