Synchronization
The Project Synchronization Setup dialog

MIDI Timecode
Cubase acts as a timecode slave to any incoming MIDI timecode (MTC) on
the port(s) selected in the MIDI Timecode section, to the right of the Timecode
Source section.
Selecting “All MIDI Inputs” allows Cubase to sync to MTC from any MIDI
connection. You can also select a single MIDI port for receiving MTC.
ASIO Audio Device
This option is only available with audio cards that support ASIO Positioning
Protocol. These audio cards have an integrated LTC reader or ADAT sync
port and can perform a phase alignment of timecode and audio clock.
VST System Link
VST System Link can provide all aspects of sample-accurate synchronization
between other System Link workstations.

Timecode Preferences
When MIDI Timecode is selected, additional options become available in the
Cubase section, providing several options for working with external timecode.
Lock Frames
This setting determines how many full frames of timecode it takes for Cubase
to try and establish sync or “lock”. If you have an external tape transport with
a very short start-up time, try lowering this number to make lock-up even
faster. This option can only be set to multiples of two.
Drop Out Frames
This setting determines the amount of missed timecode frames it takes for
Cubase to stop. Using LTC recorded on an analog tape machine can result
in some amount of drop outs. Increasing this number allows Cubase to
“free-wheel” over missed frames without stopping. Lowering this number
causes Cubase to stop sooner once the tape machine has stopped.
