The choice of Mix Pass 'Extend Back To:' function determines where the
Read Mix Data to Record Data transition takes place. In essence, the concept
is as follows:
'Take the last recorded value and extend it back to: _____________!'
The blank can be filled in with one of two 'Extend Back To:' locations:
• Punch-in: Extend the Last Recorded Value back to the punch-in location
• Begin: Extend the Last Recorded Value back to the specified Begin
Time.
These locations are also known as EXTEND BACK TO: Functions.
No­te Unlike other automation systems, the transition from Read Mix Data to Re-
cord Data does not necessarily have to take place at the punch-in location.
sition from Read Mix Data to Record Data will take place. As noted above,
there are two different EXTEND BACK TO: functions. The selected function
key will illuminate when that EXTEND BACK TO: function is active. Only one
function can be active at a time.
Keys for EXTEND BACK TO: functions are located on the Mix Pass section of
the Automation Panel.
The two EXTEND BACK TO: functions behave as follows:
• PUNCH-IN: The Last Recorded Value (typically the value at the time of the
punch-out) will be extended back to the punch-in point. At the punch-in
point, the Read Mix Data will transition to the Record Data.
• BEGIN: The Last Recorded Value will be extended back to the user-speci-
fied Begin Time. All previously recorded values between the Last Re-
corded Value (typically Punch-out) and the Begin Time will be erased.
The Begin Time is defined in three different ways:
- Beginning of Mix: The Last Recorded Value will be extended back to
the Begin Time of the Active Mix.
- Beginning of Time: The Last Recorded Value will be extended back
to the first possible timecode location (i.e. 00:00:00.00).
- Fixed...: The Last Recorded Value will be extended back to a 'fixed'
user-specified Begin Time. See Setting a Fixed Begin Time below.
