SYSTEM SET UP

The XR300 should be central to your MIDI set up. Make the connections from your external equipment to the MIDI and audio sockets in-the back of the XR300 as shown in the diagram on the following page.

When reading time code from tape the XR300 provides the master MIDI clock. Therefore, for the MIDI system to operate properly ensure that:

• a. The drum machine and sequencer are set to external MIDI clock sync.
• b. No MIDI clock data is echoed through the keyboard back into the XR300. If your master keyboard has a MIDI echo thru facility make sure it is disabled.
• c. The tape recorder audio connections are correct and the audio levels on both the tape recorder and the XR300 are correctly adjusted (see section (2) on striping your tape).
• d. All the MIDI Din plugs are connected to the right in's and out's on the XR300 and your equipment.

Once the equipment has been correctly set up follow the instructions for striping your sync. track. If you have problems see the section at the back of this manual on trouble-shooting.
