Word Clock
About Word Clock
• You can set the word clock source to an external clock
device, the MADI input signal, or the Dante network.
• You can send the word clock from this unit to an
external device via the [WORD CLOCK OUT]
connector.
• You can connect the [SYSTEM LINK OUT] connector
to the AES 2 IN connector on Steinberg Nuendo
SyncStation for high-precision clock sync with
Nuendo.
Selecting a Word Clock
Source
Use the WORD CLOCK [WCLK IN]/[MADI]/[DANTE] key
on the front panel to select the word clock source.
The unit’s clock is synced with the selected word clock
source.
NOTE
• If you select [WCLK IN] or [MADI], the unit is automatically
specified as the “Preferred Leader” and “Enable Sync To
External” is set in the Dante network.
• If you select [WCLK IN] or [MADI], when the unit acts as the
clock follower on the Dante network, input to the unit the same
clock as the clock leader. You can use Dante Controller
(available from the following website) to check which device
is the current clock leader.

• If the word clock signal from the selected work clock source is
cut off, the unit switches to its internal clock. The internal
clock operates according to the previous word clock, before it
was cut off.
MADI SRC (Sampling
Rate Converter)
MADI SRC allows you to connect a MADI-compatible
device having a different clock than the RMio64-D unit.
• You can connect a Dante network and a MADI-
compatible device that are operating under different
clocks without making any changes to either clock.
• You can output MADI signals with a different word
clock than the MADI input signal.
Setting Examples
NOTE
Output Clock Source in the following block diagram can be
controlled only by remote control.
Using the MADI signal internal clock on the
MADI side, and syncing the unit to the
Dante network:
Using an external clock on the MADI-
compatible devices, and syncing the unit to
the Dante network:
NOTE
The same external clock supplied to MADI-compatible devices
must be input to [WCLK IN FOR SRC] on the unit.
WCLK IN Uses the word clock signal that is input from
the [WORD CLOCK IN] connector on the
rear panel. This indicator flashes if no valid
word clock input is detected.
MADI Uses the word clock of the MADI input
signal. This indicator flashes if no valid word
clock input is detected.
DANTE Uses the word clock from the Dante network.
