| LANC (Local Application Control) is a Sony standard which communicates bidirectional machine control, time code and status data on a 2.5 mm miniatur jack to jack connection. Sony as well as Canon DV-Camcorders and VTRs have the LANC port. The LIF lanc interface converts the embedded time code into LTC and MTC simultaneously and also translates MMC or Sony P2 into LANC. "Batch digitizing" with non linear video editing systems (Avid Media Composer, Fast 601, Tektronix Lightworks) can be performed direct from a DV-Camcorder or VTR. A digital audio workstation (as Digidesign ProTools, Steinberg Nuendo, Soundscape R.Ed) can control the DV transport via MMC (midi machine control) and synchronize to the feed MTC. The LIF outputs LTC & MTC in normal play operation and outputs MTC full messages & LTC bursts during jog / shuttle. This allows to cue up slaved tape transports and HD recorders for frame accurate spotting. The VTR can be controlled manually or remoted by MMC (midi machine control) or Sony RS-422 Controllers. The digital audio tracks of DV-VTRs are free for audio recording, because no LTC time code track is necessary. The interface has a robust aluminium housing, a large 7-segment LED display and a built-in power supply. An optional rackmount kit for fitting the unit into a 19" rack is also available. | |
