For the MPC2500 it is recommended that a song to be synced to MTC contain at least 1 blank measure in the beginning to allow for accurate sync. The following frame rates are supported: 30 Frames 30 Drop (29.97) Frames 25 Frames 24 Frames NOTE: since MIDl Time Code is used to sync vastly different devices, ‘chase’ time is often required to ensure that all devices will be accurately locked to the same time. MIDl Time Code contains location information in Hours:Minutes:Seconds:Frames, but unlike MIDl Clock, it does not contain tempo information. MIDl Time code is a standard protocol to allow various devices, such as hard disk recorders, video cameras and tape based recorders to sync together. 2 New Sync Options MIDl TIME CODE In addition to MIDl clock, the MPC2500 will now sync to and transmit MIDl Time Code, or MTC. This addendum covers all changes that have been made since the publishing of the Reference Manual and covers all changes up to: Version 1.2 1 Internal optimizations, bug fixes, and other changes that are transparent to the user are not included in this document (since internal changes are mostly geeky, technical, and don’t affect the user in any way). All changes affecting the user-interface (i.e., anything the user will see) are listed in this addendum. Because we’re continuously striving to make your MPC better, the Reference Manual and Quickstart Guides may not be completely up to date with the latest features. 2 About this Addendum: The MPC 2500’s operating system is upgradeable and allows us to add features and make changes to existing features after it has left the factory floor.
