AWSomation
AWSomation features SSL's 'auto-nulling' feature so that each time Trim is re-enabled a new null point is set.
When writing a Trim move, the dB trim value is displayed in the scribble strip above the fader.
New Automation
Original
Automation
Both Autotakeover and Snap functions (see below) used in conjunction with a Trim update allows a seamless
or smooth return to the stored mix data.
When Join is used with faders in Trim at the Rollback point, any Trim offset will be retained and written from the
point that the Join key is operated. Revise returns any fader in Trim at the Rollback point back to write but with
a new null point to avoid a level jump.
TLock
Note: This feature is only available with Motors OFF
TLock - Trim Lock - defeats the auto nulling feature of the standard Trim function and 'locks' the null point to
the position that the fader was in when Trim was first enabled in the current Mix Pass. This enables a defined
trim offset to be repeatedly punched in and out throughout the subsequent Mix Pass. Deselecting TLock clears
any stored nulled points. AutoTakeover can be used when TLock is active, however Snap and TLock are
mutually exclusive; selecting one deselects the other and vice versa.
TRIM IN SNAP MODE

Fader moved
TRIM WITH TLOCK
Status key pressed again
Status key pressed
Motors Off
Moff - Motors Off - this mode suspends the motorised playback of Mix data via the moving faders. In this mode
it will emulate a VCA automation system. Moff automatically activates the fader SuspdAll Links function
(see later).
AWS 900+ SE Owner's Manual
7-8
Move the fader up or down to the new value and
all the existing moves will be copied exactly at
the new level
An example of TLock would be bringing up the
levels of guitar licks in a track. If Trim is used
in Snap mode, the fader can be raised and let
Level not
exact
go repeatedly, returning to the previous level.
However it is difficult to have an identical
increase in level each time when using
manually.
If we use TLock, the reference
value will be set, and the fader will be moved
to the correct raised level. Every time you
press the fader status key it will jump to that
level, and when pressed again, it will return to
Level is exact
the reference value. There will be no glide
times and the value will be identical.
