Re: Is it possible to sync Vortex to EDP? How 'bouts an RDS?

[John Tidwell <wedgehed@yahoo.com>]

Many thanks to Matthias for the diagram & to Kim for
the links for buying the components. Hey, it really
works! :)

The manual for the Digitech RDS 7.6 indicates that
its delay time can be set by an incoming pulse signal.
Has anyone on the list used the EDP to do this?

Here's how the Digitech manual describes it....


The RDS 2001 and RDS 7.6 are equipped with a
ARM/TRIGGER PULSE input. a 1/4-inch mono
phone jack, which is designed to be connected to a
synchronous +5 volt pulse generator, like a drum
machine. When the RDS 2001's or RDS 7.6's DELAY/SAMPLE
MODE switch is in the NORMAL
position and a pulse is received at the ARM/TRIGGER
PULSE jack; the memory is reset, thus
adjusting the number of bytes of memory to be used by
the delay section. This feature allows
synchronizing of the memory-length time with an
interval determined by the device generating the
sync pulse. When used for sync, the time between the
pulses must be less than the delay time of
the unit.

When the RDS 2001 or RDS 7.6 is in the trigger
position, the recorded sample stored in memory
can be started by a synchronizing pulse. The time
between pulses may be any length of time,
however, if it is shorter than the sample length, only
part of the sample will be heard before it repeats
again.

A pulse fed to the ARM/TRIGGER PULSE input jack will
also arm the record sample function when
the DELAY/SAMPLE MODE switch is in the SAMPLE position
(see the section on sample recording).

I hope to be receiving a Digi 7.6 next week as a
result of my 1st ebay experience. My thanks to all
who have posted RDS info to the list over the years.
