Menu 115: TL Bus Rate Mult
This menu determines whether a TL Bus slave machine will follow the sample rate setting of the
TL-Bus master machine. This makes it possible for a master to run at 96k and the slave at 48k,
and vice versa.
When set to “Use Master 1x,2x”, the slave machine’s sample clock will automatically be set to
the sample rate of the master machine. This is the way the MX-2424 has always operated.
When set to “Use Local 1x,2x”, the slave machine will not switch to or from the double sample
rate ("2X") range of the master. It will however switch its "base" sample rate setting to
match the master. The slave rate can only be exactly equal to, exactly double, or exactly half
that of the master.
Examples (Menu 115 on slave MX-2424 set to "Use Local 1x,2x" in all cases):
(i) If both master and slave are at 48000, and the master's rate is changed to 96000, then the
slave rate will stay at 48000.
(ii) If both master and slave are at 96000, and the master's rate is changed to 48000, then the
slave rate will stay at 96000.
(iii) If both master and slave are at 48000, and the master's rate is changed to 88200, then the
slave rate will change to 44100. The slave has matched the "base" sample rate of the
master, but has not switched to the "2X" range of the master. Both master and slave will
have their "44100" LED's illuminated, but the master will also have the "2X" LED lit up.
(iv) If both master and slave are at 96000, and the master's rate is changed to 44056, then the
slave rate will change to 88112.
Menu 410: Inputs 1-12 /2x
This menu selects the input source used when a high sample rate is used. Available choices are
2Ch In”, “Analog” and “Dig In”.
NOTE: When using the Dig In setting of this menu and clocking to the digital input it is
necessary to set the Sample Reference in Menu 005 to Dig In 1,2.
