Enabling MMC in Digital Performer
Once you have made the preparations outlined in the
previous sections, you are ready to enable MMC control
between Digital Performer and the MOTU Express
interface. For complete details, see your Digital Performer
manual. For convenience, a brief summary is provided
below:
1 Turn on the MMC control button as shown in
Figure 9-3.
2 As shown in Figure 8-4 on page 117, open Digital
Performer’s Receive Sync dialog and prepare Digital
Performer to slave to MIDI Time Code (MTC) at the
desired frame rate (which needs to match the MOTU
MIDI Express interfaces frame rate).
3 Set the SMPTE start time for the sequence.
Now, just cue Digital Performer anywhere you like and
press play. This sends a play command to the MOTU MIDI
interface/synchronizer, which starts the MMC slave device
and begins sending time code to Digital Performer,
syncing everything together. You can stop, play, and cue
anywhere you like in Digital Performer and your MMC
slave device will chase, play and record accordingly.
USING AN MMC CONTROL SURFACE
To use any MMC-compatible control surface product,
such as the JL Cooper CuePoint™:
1 Connect the MIDI OUT and IN jacks on the MMC
controller to your Express interface.
2 Using ClockWorks, route MTC to the MIDI OUT port
that the MMC controller is connected to as shown in
Figure 5-3 on page 35 (or Figure 6-21 on page 72 for Mac
OS 9 users) so that it can receive MIDI Time Code from
your Express interface.
3 In the MMC controller device, identify the MMC
device ID for your Express interface.
From the factory, the default MMC device ID for your
Express interface is 20. If you need to, you can change it as
described in “Setting MMC device ID’s on page 125.
