Word clock signal?
« on: April 28, 2004, 02:12:38 PM »
Does anyone know what a word clock signal consists of?  Is it basically a blank spdif signal, or is it just a clock frequency like you would use in logic design?

I was reading my AD500 manual last night, and noticed that the wordclock in was the same jack as the spdif sync in.  I am thinking that i could still use the apogee synced either to a word clock signal, an optical signal, or a spdif signal.  the only problems i can see are that the clock signal will not be the "special C768 low-jitter clock" signal.  This might be more constant than say the spdif signal from an sbm1.  will this less constant clock effect the quality of the AD processing?  

Also maybe we could do some kind of DIY word clock generator if it would not be too complicated.  
then we tell the kids that its good versus evil
that country and god are more important than people
we say it so much that its almost believable
Fear, we'll leave nobody behind.

Bring a BNC>BNC and you could probably slave it to a v3 or something in the larger TSs

That's one I haven't heard before: "Can I get a wordclock patch, brah?"
Out of the game … for now?
