Teac MX-2424 v1.04 - Manual (Page 38)

004 Timecode Type
From this Menu it is possible to change the frame rate of the time code that is output from the MX-2424. (NOTE: It
is not possible for the MX-2424 to chase one frame rate and simultaneously output a different frame rate.) The
possible choices are:
24/24
25/25 PAL Default (Europe)
29.97/DF
29.97/NDF NTSC Default (USA)
30/DF
30/NDF Non-Video Default
(NOTE: The MX-2424 will automatically switch to the correct frame rate between 24, 25 and 30 frames per second
but will not automatically switch between variations of 30 frames per second such as 29.97/DF, 29.97/NDF, 30/DF
or 30/NDF. These settings will have to be selected manually, this allows maximum flexibility in certain post
production situations.)
When chasing MTC the MX-2424 will not automatically switch to match the incoming MTC. In this case it will be
necessary to manually select the time code type and lock the MX-2424’s digital clock to the device generating MTC
to avoid drift since the MX-2424 will not derive digital clock from incoming MTC.
005 Sample Rate
From this Menu it is possible to change the playback sample rate of a Project. (NOTE: It is possible to change the
playback sample rate of a Project to a rate that does not match the original sample rate of the audio file resulting in a
playback speed that does not match the original recording.) The possible choices including pull up and pull down
for post-production applications are:
44056 44.1 Pull Down
44100 Standard (This is the default setting.)
44144 44.1 Pull Up
47952 48 Pull Dow
48000 Standard
48048 48 Pull Up
006 Varispeed Rate
From this Menu the amount of Varispeed (playback speed/pitch) can be adjusted in 0.1% increments within a range
of +/-12.5%. Varispeed varies the playback frequency as well as any digital sample clock output from the MX-2424.
(NOTE: If the MX-2424 is connected digitally to a digital console it may be possible to select a Varispeed amount
that is out of the acceptable range of the console and the console will mute. If this occurs it will be necessary to
reduce the Varispeed amount or connect the MX-2424 to the console using analog connections.)
