MTC Error Level
Determines how often the reception status is checked when MTC is
being received from an external device. Stop synchronization if a
problem becomes apparent with the check.
being received from an external device. Stop synchronization if a
problem becomes apparent with the check.
Value:
0–10 (the checking interval will be longer for larger values)
In strict terms, the lower the numerical value set, the more
accurate the check is. However, playback may be stopped
overly frequently if too rigorous a check is made, and this soon
becomes inconvenient. By raising the Error Level setting, then
even if problems with the reception of MTC do occur,
synchronization can then continue as long as such problems
remain at a level that does not cause undue problems.

Types of MTC
The types of MTC that can be selected by the Fantom-X are
shown below. Select the same frame rate as that set for the
external device. When not using a video device, then any frame
rate may be selected as long as the rates are the same on both
devices being synchronized.

30:
This is 30 frames per second, non-drop format. This is
used by audio devices such as analog tape recorders,
and for NTSC format black and white video (used in
Japan and the U.S.).

Non-Drop Format and Drop Format
There are two types of format used by NTSC video cassette
recorders, non-drop and drop. Non-drop format features
continuous time code, whereas in drop format, which is used
for NTSC color video format, the first two frames of every
minute are dropped, except for those at ten-minute intervals. In
most video and audio production, since formats with
continuous frames are easier to deal with, non-drop is generally
used. In contrast, in situations such as in broadcast, where the
time code must match actual clock time, drop is used.
