TRIMMING A SPLICE - BOTH LOCKED

The top line of the screen shows TRIM PRE, TRIM POST and both blocks are highlighted.
On the external monitor, both cues either side of the splice will be highlighted ochre. As
you move the jog wheel or the DATA ENTRY or numeric keypad +/- keys, you will see the
splice point move. Because both cues are locked, only the splice point moves. It is
possible to trim the splice point and also slip either the PRE cue or the POST cue
accordingly. We shall come to this a bit later.
If we go back to the example where we have two recordings, one counting from "one" to
"ten", the other counting from "ten" to "one", moving the splice would have this effect:
You can reveal more or less of the PRE or POST cue's source audio as you 'slide' the
splice point around.
The same restrictions apply when trimming regarding the region in which you may move
this splice point when trimming with both the PRE and POST cues locked. You cannot
move the splice point further than either the PRE or POST cues' original source audio.
Also, you cannot move the splice point beyond the extremes of the two cues (i.e. before
the PRE cue's start and after the POST cue's end). If you do try to move the splice
beyond these regions, you will receive this prompt:

LISTEN

Two new soft keys appear on SHIFT+F1 and SHIFT+F6 both called LISTEN. These allow
you to select which side of the splice you will listen to when using the jog wheel to move
the splice point. Pressing SHIFT+F1 allows you to listen to the PRE cue's audio as you
trim and pressing SHIFT+F6 allows you to hear the POST cue's audio as you trim. They
highlight to show which one is selected.
