Post Pass Processing:
Important Note:
Setting a Fixed Begin Time:

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-
specified Begin Time. All previously recorded values between the Last
Recorded 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.
By definition, EXTEND BACK TO: transitions are performed as a post pass
process. This also means it is possible to overwrite mix data in locations
that have not been heard. Care is suggested while using EXTEND BACK TO:
functions.
EXTEND BACK TO: PUNCH IN and BEGIN are destructive functions in the
regard that they will overwrite existing mix data back to their respective
EXTEND BACK TO: locations. Even though previous Mix Passes are re-
tained, for efficient operation care should be taken when using these func-
tions.
Fixed Begin Times are set using the methods employed to setting Fixed
End Times. Refer to "Setting a Fixed End Time" in
Hot Keys: Hot Keys are provided to aid in the entry of fixed Begin timecode loca-
tions. A complete description of Hot Key functions is provided in the Ap-
pendix.
<Option> • <End of Pass Clears>: The End of Pass options (refer to
determine the behavior of specific functions when a mix pass is termi-
nated by stopping timecode. The behaviors that take place are deter-
mined on the End of Pass Options page. Check boxes allow the selec-
tion of the following options:
- With <Extend Back To Begin> checked, the "Extend Back To: Be-
gin" function is disabled after the end of every Mix Pass. This en-
sures that "Extend Back To: Begin" is only used for one pass with-
out being reset.
- With <Extend Back To Punch In> checked, the "Extend Back To:
Punch In" function is disabled after the end of every Mix Pass. This
ensures that "Extend Back To: Begin" is only used for one pass
without being reset.
• With <Extend Back To Punch In Selects Write to Punch Out> checked
on the Master Panel Options page (refer to
Punch Out" is automatically selected when "Extend Back To: Punch In"
is selected. This is convenient since these functions are often used to-
gether, especially when Auditioning a level and then using that level
between punch-in and punch-out locations.
