The DM3 only have a two track recorder, but in other hand thru Dante or the USB you can add several recorders, such as two SD970, or two computers But I will try to investigate reading control, it has a time reader in the mixer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Liston Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 After ordering one 6 months ago, I finally got it the other day. The Good: - Motorized faders are as quiet as any I've used. Certainly more quiet than my Avid S1. - Touch screen is fab - Software is superior to Behringer/Midas. - Boom recorder and it got along great The Bad - Only two tracks on the recorder? Come on! - Has a clock, and even a frame rate selector. No way to jam in or out. No 23.976! - Limited FX The Ugly - .500ms changeover from Primary to Secondary. All my other stuff is seamless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael Capulli Posted February 26 Report Share Posted February 26 Correct me if I’m wrong but I thought the clocking over Dante was excellent and you no longer needed word clock if using Dante Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dante uses PTP to good effect, albeit the chattier V1. However, Dante devices don't like changing clocks, as they stay doing whatever they're told. But if you have word clock on some devices, they will auto-switch rates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If everyone goes Dante then you are probably ok. If everyone is syncing to a master generator in a production truck etc then your console needs to have its sample rate follow that clock.

All my other stuff is seamless Yamaha is very strict in all consoles about having only stereo recorders on board. Weird, but just as true for the top of the line "Rivage" as it is for this mixer. You can get clock i/o in a Yamaha mixer but you have move up the line a ways. Isn't there a way to add plugins to the mixer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can follow any Dante clock as master or for example with a Avio AES by AES EBU (Enable sync to external) Best Suso Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
