Most keys on this panel can be roughly divided into three groups:
tion keys located below them: FDR, MUTE, KNOB, SWIT, or all current HELD
objects. The preselectors for faders, mutes, encoders/knobs, and switches
influence the whole console, not only specific channels.
• PUNCH-IN, PUNCH-OUT
• Set objects into READ, WRITE , TRIM , or ISOLATE mode
• CLR (clear) the 'held' state of all held objects
for the next time the corresponding event occurs, e.g.:
• GLIDE will switch on or off the glide mechanism for upcoming punch-
outs.
• HOLD will suppress the detection of the physical un-touch of an object.
The object will therefore stay in a 'held' state.
No­te: This key will only influence future physical un-touch of objects.
• RECORD tells the system whether it should punch-in when (upcoming)
touches are being detected. If this switch is off, the automation is in an
'audition' or 'rehearse' mode.
• WRITE TO: LEVEL MATCH, NEXT CHANGE, END, and PUNCH-OUT will
write the value at the time of punch-out possibly further ahead, rather than
immediately stop recording. The neutral setting is PUNCH-OUT. This will
record no more after punch-out.
• WRITE TO: BEGIN, PUNCH-IN: These keys can only be activated before
starting a mix pass. They will write the value at the time of punch-out as
a constant value back to the begin (setting BEGIN) or back to the point
where the user punched in (setting PUNCH-IN).
