Drop out the automation data using one of the following methods.
• Touch the MASTER DROP IN button on the window to turn its color
to dark red.
• Touch the numerical value of the items subject to automation.
• Release the fader.
• Stop the tape recorder.
Automation data for the items set in WRITE mode in step 6 is written.
Notes
• If a lot of items are dropped in/out at the same time using the MASTER
DROP IN button, data near the drop in/drop out point may not be stored
and recalled correctly.
• Automation items in WRITE mode are removed from snapshot recall and
control from MIDI.
The data of the automation items is recalled according to the timecode
entered. To update automation data, set the desired automation items to
READY, then drop them into WRITE.
You can select either ABS mode or TRIM mode to update data, using the
ABS button or TRIM button of the TC AUTOMATION buttons on the
Automation panel.
In ABS mode, you can set the speed to return to the previous data from the
new data in the AUTO RETURN TIME section in the AUTOMATION
