I have it set to ASIO sync but it doesn't seem to sync, it just says waiting for timecode. Does anyone have any ideas about this? I have limited time with this equipment so time is of the essence! :-)
i think you are talking about two different types of sync. Generally, the sync signal from the adat to the interface is to do with ensuring the digital audio signal is transferring correctly from one to the other - ie the adat is the master and the id14 is the slave.
The synchronisation you are referring to in reaper is to do with starting / stopping at a particular time etc.
What exactly are you trying to do? do you have audio in reaper than needs to synchronise with the adat? If not, there is no reason to worry about sync in reaper, just press record and play the tape.
If so then you would possibly need to set up synchronisation via MTC or something? Does the adat accept midi?
