same signal directly out, unaffected by any of the
SX-1’s electronics.
The Sony 9-pin connector (also known as P2) is used
for connecting to devices that adhere to that protocol.
See “P2 Remote Machine Control in the SX-1” on
page 34 for more information on connecting P2
devices.
6 CASCADE This connector will be used in a
future release to allow a TASCAM DM-24 console
to act as a “sidecar” for the SX-1.
7 ADAT I/O These connectors carry eight chan-
nels of digital audio in a format commonly referred
to as ADAT lightpipe. The 9-pin D-sub connector is
used for sync/control with an ADAT-style device.
8 FOOTSWITCH Connect a momentary-style
pedal here for remote control of recording (punching
in or out). The polarity (that is, whether the pedal is
normally open or normally closed) of the pedal is set
on the LCD
PREFERENCES
screen.
9 TIME CODE IN Connect the LTC (Longitudi-
nal Time Code, often referred to as SMPTE) output
of a device to this input. The SX-1 can chase this
incoming code.
A WORD IN/OUT/THRU These jacks send
and receive word clock signals. The
THRU
connector
takes the signal received at the
IN
and sends out an
exact mirror, untouched by the SX-1’s electronics.
B LTC OUT This jack allows the SX-1 to output
LTC (or SMPTE). The frame rate is determined on
the
SETTINGS
pages.
C DIGITAL I/O (SPDIF) 1 and 2 These jacks
send and receive digital audio in S/PDIF or AES/
EBU format (automatically detected for input,
switchable for output). They can be directly moni-
tored in the monitoring sections by selecting either
D-IN 1
or
D-IN 2
.
D Expansion slots The SX-1 can have its
available I/O expanded by the addition of 8-channel
expansion cards in these slots. These cards are the
same as those used in the TASCAM DM-24 console.
