System Clocking 
Master Clock 
When configured with an IF-FW/DM 
MK
II, the mixer must be the 
master clock relative to the computer DAW.  The mixer itself may 
be clocked to an external source other than the DAW. 
Clock Settings 
When switching the clock rate of the mixer, or of any external 
device that is the clock master in your system, the following steps 
are required for correct operation: 
1.  Stop any audio playing from the DAW or computer. 
2.  Close the DAW application. 
3.  Change the sample rate on the mixer (or external clock 
source) 
4.  Re-launch the DAW application. 
96k & 88.2k Operation 
The IF-FW/DM 
MK
II supports the full 32x32 input output 
configuration at high sampling rates. This will put extra strain on 
your computer’s CPU and OS, so a higher latency audio buffer 
setting or an Input/Output setting of 16 channels may be required. 
For these sampling rates, TASCAM recommends the following 
computer specifications: 
Windows 
•  2GHz Pentium
®
 4 or higher. 
•  1GByte Memory 
 
Mac 
•  Any G5 PPC Mac, or Intel Mac 1.5 GHz or higher. 
•  1GByte Memory.
