When a control is punched out of Record into Playback the control will
glide from the punch-out value to the read mix value over the time period
as set by the Glide Time setting. The system attempt to recalculate the
glide vector after each frame so an attempt is made to have the actual glide
duration match the set glide time as closely as possible. However, if the
read data is approaching the gliding control quickly, the glide duration
may be shorter than the actual setting. In no cases will the time be longer.
This behavior is consistent with good mixing practice.
The punch-out glide will take place if the control is punched out...
• While timecode is running (glide takes place in real-time)
• As a result of Timecode being stopped (glide takes place in the post
process)
• And even if timecode is stopped in the middle of the glide (glide takes
place partly in real-time and partly in the post process). This is a great
feature because there are many times when a machine (TC) is stopped
by one mixer just after another mixer has punched out and a glide has
begun. In this case the glide will occur unscathed!
When an old Read Mix data record is encountered for this control, a glide
begins at that point and extends for the duration of the glide time (of
course this assumes that the option is set and that the Master Glide Button
is active at the time of the next change).
