TASCAM MMR-8/MMP-16 Version 4.2 Owner’s Manual Update
5
Using ViewNet:
1.
Under the File menu, click on Utilities.
2.
Select the Project you wish to export.
3.
Click on Export and enter a file name and destination disk ID.
Exporting to the same disk will only translate the Pro Tools 5.0 EDL to a Pro Tools 4.0
EDL and will not copy any audio files. Exporting to a disk other than the source disk will
rewrite the Pro Tools 5.0 EDL in 4.0 format and will copy all audio files the EDL points
to.
A Note on Deleting a Pro Tools 5.0 Session
After exporting a Pro Tools 5.0 session to a Pro Tools 4.0 session, a user may wish to
delete the existing 5.0 Pro Tools project EDL (this is not a required step). Performing a
delete will not remove audio files form the disk. This can be performed from the Backup
menu on the MMR/MMP or in the Utilities menu in ViewNet. Note that individual tracks
cannot be deleted from Pro Tools 5.0 sessions, as such an action would alter the EDL.
New Menu (795) to Enable/Disable Dual SCSI Operation
Version 4.2 adds menu 795, Dual SCSI Mode, to enable and disable Dual SCSI Operation. This
new feature alleviates the need to load specific Dual SCSI Operation software as with
MMR/MMP Version 4.0 software. Menu 795 will default to the “Off” state, disabling Dual SCSI
Operation. To enable Dual SCSI Operation:
1.
Press the Setup Menu, followed by the “8” key on the numeric keypad.
2.
Press the down arrow once to access Menu 795.
3.
Press trim and use the Up/Down Arrow keys or Jog wheel to select “On”.
4.
Press the Yes<STO> key. Reboot the machine after the message “You must now
reboot” appears.
5.
Perform steps 1 through 4 on both MM machines to be connected in Dual SCSI
operation.
To disable Dual SCSI Operation:
1.
Repeat Steps 1 and 2 above.
2.
Press trim and use the Up/Down Arrow keys or Jog wheel to select “Off”.
3.
Press the Yes<STO> key. Reboot the machine after the message “You must now
reboot” appears.
Boot Up Procedure
To begin using Dual SCSI mode, first make all connections necessary. Proceed with
powering up one of the MM units. After one unit has completed the boot up sequence,
power up the other MM unit. Press mount (stop button) on machines that did not mount
volumes. Load desired projects.
