Teac MMR-8 v1.25 - Manual (Page 13)

Tascam MMR/MMP Owner’s Manual • Version 1.26 & 1.27 Update Information 13
Locking Kingston Carrier Option
Version 1.26 makes changes in the MMR/MMP software to allow use of the locking solenoid
mechanism for the Kingston removable drive carrier. There is a required field modification to some
of the hardware components inside the MMR/MMP before this type of Kingston carrier can be
used. The changes in Version 1.26 will allow this type of locking mechanism to be used only when
the hardware changes have also been made.
The locking solenoid Kingston carrier mechanism will lock the hard disk volume in place until all
drives are unmounted. This prevents the user from removing the drive until it is properly
unmounted, thus preventing accidental damage to disk files.
Please contact TASCAM customer Service for information on adapting existing units to take
advantage of the locking Kingston carrier mechanism.
Loop Mode Bug Fix
Loop Mode now works properly when referenced to video sync.
Software Version 1.27
Two minor changes, one of them a necessary bug fix, have been made in Version 1.27.
Backup Bug Fix
Version 1.27 corrects a bug in the Backup, Tape Mode Convert, and OMF Export process which
would sometimes cause only 1 track to be selected for backup.
OMF to WaveFrame Conversion
A change has been made in Version 1.27 to facilitate file conversions from OMF to WaveFrame.
Source clip names are now retained when converting OMF files to WaveFrame projects.
