SHIFT+EDIT Loads the start and end of the event currently under the play head on the selected
(EVENT) track(s) into the In point and Out point registers (also called "event capture").
MON Pressing this key while in the Normal state allows the SEL keys to select which
track(s) will be monitored through the front panel headphone monitor output. This
does not affect the rear panel Studio Monitor jack, which always presents a mono
mix of all tracks.
SHIFT+MON Pressing SHIFT + MON puts the MMP into a Slip In/Out mode that allows for
(Slip In/Out) slipping (or nudging) all material between the In and Out register locations on
selected tracks. When Slip In/Out is active, none of the status LEDs for the Track
Mode Select keys is lit on the MMP front panel. This is to distinguish this mode
from all other Track Select Modes, wherein at least one Track Select Mode status
LED is always lit. Upon pressing SHIFT + MON, the bottom line of the display
will show Slip and a time code entry field. Use the Wheel or the Up/Down arrow
keys to enter the amount by which the defined region (between In and Out) on the
selected tracks is to be slipped. This operation does not affect sync on material
which is not located between the In and Out register locations. Slip In/Out will
overwrite any existing material on the selected tracks that is at the new destination
location to which the material has been moved.
To complete the Slip In/Out operation, press SHIFT +MON again. The bottom line
of the display will show Slip In/Out to indicate that the slip operation has been
performed. To exit the Slip In/Out operation without executing the slip, press CLR.
LOAD TRACK Pressing this key puts the MMP-16 into the Load Track state, and is the first step to
loading pre-recorded material for playback or for deleting recorded material.
Information on the pre-recorded material available on the drive is presented in
hierarchical levels on the LCD display, according to the EDL format of the
material itself.
For WaveFrame or StudioFrame volumes, this means the material will be listed
in a Project / Episode / Reel / Dub / Track hierarchy, with Episode being an
optional element. For Pro Tools volumes, the material will be listed in Session /
Track hierarchy, and for OMF volumes, the material will be presented in a
Composition / Track hierarchy.
As with the Setup menu system, the Wheel and arrow keys are used to navigate
through the available selections at a given level. Unlike the Setup menu system,
however, descending through the hierarchy of track information is accomplished
by repeatedly pressing LOAD TRACK. Pressing LOAD TRACK while at the
bottom or "track" level exits the Load Track state and returns the MMP-16 to the
Normal state.
