USING MIDI TIMEPIECE AV CONSOLE

ID of the MIDI Timepiece AV is 20, and the default

ID of the ADAT connected to the MIDI Timepiece

AV is 1. Other chained ADATs are automatically set

to ID’s 2, 3, and so on. You can change these

defaults if you’d like from the console’s Advanced

MIDI window.

Direct MMC versus redistributed MMC

When you enable the transport master option

shown in Figure 10-18, the MIDI Timepiece AV

“swallows” all MMC transport commands sent by

MMC software running on the computer,

regardless of the MMC device the messages are

intended for (as determined by the MMC device

ID embedded in the messages). If you want to

control a MMC device from your computer, you

have two choices:

1. bypass the MIDI Timepiece AV’s MMC features,

2. or send the MMC transport commands to the

MIDI Timepiece AV instead and have it

redistribute them to the other MMC device(s)

If you would like to bypass the MIDI Timepiece AV

and control a MMC device directly from your

computer software (choice #1 above), uncheck the

transport master option shown in Figure 10-18.

If you plan to use choice #2 above, leave the

transport master option checked, and also make

connection shown in Figure 10-10 on page 91

(which routes the MIDI Timepiece AV’s Transport

Out port to the other MMC device).

WORKING WITH SETUPS

The MIDI Timepiece AV provides eight “Base

Setups” (“setups”), which you can conﬁgure any

way you wish.

Modifying a setup

To modify a setup:

1 Select one of the eight setups from the Setup list

in the toolbar.

2 Make any changes you like in the MIDI Routing

window, Filter window, Channel Map window,

Sync window, or Advanced MIDI windows.

After you make your ﬁrst change to a setup, the

Console software indicates this interim state by

displaying the phrase “Modiﬁed” in parentheses

next to the setup name in the setup list.

Making the MIDI Timepiece AV remember

modiﬁcations

Once you have modiﬁed a setup, you can make the

MIDI Timepiece AV remember the modiﬁcations

in one of several ways.

■ Choose Write setup from the Interface menu

■ Click the Write setup button in the toolbar (see

Figure 10-2 on page 84)

■ Turn on Auto-write, which automatically writes

the setup to the MIDI Timepiece AV when you

either switch to a different setup or exit the console

software

Figure 10-19: Writing a setup so that changes to it are remembered.

Renaming a setup

To rename a setup, choose Interface|Write setup

menu command or by clicking the Write Setup

button in the toolbar. Type in the new name and

click Write.

Saving setups and banks to disk

Use the commands in the File menu to save a single

setup or a setup bank (all eight setups) as a ﬁle on

disk. Just choose Save setup or bank from the menu,

type in a name, and click OK. To load the setup or

bank from disk, use the Load bank or setup

command in the File menu.
