If you are using MIDI now, just switch the cable so the computer MIDI out goes to the 8 track MIDI in, then turn off external sync in PT, and check MIDI out (under preferences) to find the MTC time code box. It is labeled 'Send MIDI Time Code' (not MTC).

With audio tracks we must sync the tape to the computer sequencer, trying to sync the software sequencer to the tape won't work because the software and computer cannot stretch pcm audio to fit the speed in realtime.
But the tape can do that by simply changing the playback speed to suit, if you don't push parameters too far.
I think you've been told the hookup and settings already to accomplish this.
BTW FYI it is "Sync" - short for "Synchronization" - no 'e' at the end then.

I'll stray here. Why would you even want to bother trying to sync up a digital deck to your computer. Just digitally transfer the content of the digital deck to the computer and continue on.

Not likely really.The circuits though may change stuff. The dacs also may affect the sound. Not worth it to me.Make sure that you set set the MIDI OUT in PT to send MIDI Time Code. You'd do better with SMPTE if the Fostex can work with that.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!
If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.
A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."
"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."
"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
