Synchronization problems
Cannot synchronize
When using MTC to synchronize the BR-1200CD with a
MIDI sequencer, the BR-1200CD must be the master device.
❍ Is the MIDI cable connected correctly?
❍ Is the MIDI cable broken?
❍ Has the sync generator been set to the desired
synchronization method (MTC or MIDI Clock)?
(p. 246)
❍ If you are synchronizing with MTC, has the other
device been set to the same MTC type? (p. 246)
❍ Has the MIDI sequencer been set correctly?
❍ Is the MIDI sequencer ready to play back?
❍ Does the other device support the MMC commands
of the BR-1200CD?
Cannot record MIDI Clock
(cannot use the sync track)
❍ Is the external MIDI sequencer set to transmit MIDI
Clock/Start/Stop?
Cannot control faders using MIDI
❍ Is the MIDI cable connecting the external MIDI
sequencer connected correctly?
❍ Have you made the settings that enable the external
MIDI sequencer to record and play back the fader
information transmitted from the BR-1200CD?
Fader messages are transmitted and received using
Control Change #7 (Volume). The external MIDI
sequencer must be set so it is able to transmit and receive
such MIDI messages.
Problems with USB
The message “Waiting...” does not
turn off
❍ Is the USB cable properly connected?
❍ Is your computer's operating system compatible with
the BR-1200CD?
Windows: Windows Me/2000 /XP
Macintosh: Mac OS 9.1.x, 9.2.x, OS X
Other problems
When the power is turned on, the previous
data has not been saved correctly
It is possible that the power of the BR-1200CD was turned off
without using the POWER switch. The lost data cannot be
recovered.
