Write Absolute; Write Trim; Write Trim Mode Adds Trim Moves To Absolute Automation Values - Euphonix System 5 Manual

System 5 Digital Audio Mixing System Operation Manual
Read Suspended: Fader
Touching or moving a fader set to Read mode during automation playback initiates
Read Suspended status which overrides the underlying automation with the manual
fader moves. The green LED flashes rapidly and the new moves are audible but not
recorded. Releasing the fader reverts to playing the recorded automation. This is an
excellent method to rehearse automation without changing modes or recording over
existing automation.
Read Suspended: Knob/Switch
Pressing the Select/Punch key of a knob or switch set to Read mode during auto-
mation playback initiates Read Suspended status. The green LED flashes rapidly
and the new knob moves and switch states are audible but not recorded. Pressing
the Select/Punch key again returns to Read mode.
14.3.3

Write Absolute

The parameter can record and replay Absolute automation. The red LED flashes while
recording. The parameter will also play Trim automation, if it exists, but the indicator
will reflect the Absolute level.
14.3.4

Write Trim

When a parameter is set to Write Trim mode and punched into record for the first time,
the knob or fader moves to the null trim position at 0 dB. A trim range of ±15 dB can
augment the Absolute value. Trim settings are maintained separately from Absolute
values unless they are merged (See Merge Trim on page 208).
For example, moving the control up 5 dB from the null position adds 5 dB to the underlying
move. Punching in and out without moving the control does not change the underlying
move. Figure 14-3 shows the effect of writing new Trim data.
