TASCAM 788 — Additions and corrections
Also note that in the Brief Guide, it is mentioned that “two balanced XLR to unbalanced 1/4-inch
jack adaptors for use when recording using balanced sound sources” are provided with your 788.
In fact, these adaptors provide balanced XLR to balanced 1/4 inch TRS jack facilities.

NOTE
Because of the time needed to lock to
incoming MTC, allow at least 5 seconds
of silence at the start of a song when
using external sync.

“MIDI Timecode offset (788
as slave only)” on page 97 For example, if the MIDI timecode master
starts the timecode playback at
00:57:00:00, and the actual piece starts at
01:00:00:00, you might want to enter an
offset of 3 minutes, so that when the piece
starts, the ABS time on the 788 display
shows
01:00:00:00 (see “The
time display” on page 26).
For example, if the MIDI timecode master
starts the timecode playback at
00:57:00:00, and the actual piece starts at
01:00:00:00, you might want to enter an
offset of 1 hour, so that when the piece
starts, the ABS time on the 788 display
shows
00:00:00:00 (see “The
time display” on page 26).
