MAIN MENU

Record Card / Mirror Menu

The card/mirror menu sets the parameters of the primary recording and mirroring functions of Maxx.

Mirror Mode Options

OFF - Maxx will not mirror any files.
•
ON - Maxx will only start to mirror a file once the unit has gone into stop mode.
•
CONTINUOUS - When Maxx is recording, the audio is copied to the mirror folder immediately after it is
•
written to the primary folder. Depending on the track count, the mirror card may lag behind a bit. Not
to worry, after you go into stop mode, the mirror card will catch up.
If you are finding that continuous mirroring is lagging you may be using too much of Maxx's processing power
elsewhere. Many times there are items that are on that are on are not needed. These items can often be shut
off to conserve processing power and speed up the mirroring process. You can check to see that some of these
items are not unnecessarily on: bus assignments cross points, compressor enables (input, output and card),
high pass filters.

Write Sound Report

When selected, Maxx will create a sound report of the recorded files and write it on the mirror CF partition.
The sound report contains the metadata information for what was entered. Please note to write a sound
report mirror mode must be set to OFF.
