Ki Pro Rack Installation and Operation Manual — Operator Side
STATUS Button—Pressing the STATUS button, when not lit, enters the I/O Status
menu. Pressing STATUS when it is lit turns off the Status menu and returns
you to Transport mode. STATUS menus can be accessed at any time—
including when the machine is in an active transport mode (PLAY, RECORD,
FF, REV). The ALARM state presented on the display shares functionality with
STATUS. The Select buttons can be used to cycle through alarms and I/O
status.
CONFIG Button—Pressing CONFIG when not lit, enters the CONFIG menu.
Pressing CONFIG when it is lit turns Off the CONFIG menu (returning you to
the default TRANSPORT menu). The CONFIG menu can only be entered from
the STOP mode. The CONFIG menu remembers which parameter it is set to
when exited, and will return to that same parameter when the menu is re-
entered.
MEDIA Button—Pressing MEDIA when not lit, enters the MEDIA menu. Pressing
MEDIA when it is lit will turn Off the MEDIA menu (returning to the default
TRANSPORT menu). The MEDIA menu can only be entered from the STOP
mode. The MEDIA menu remembers which parameter it is set to when exited,
and will return to that same parameter when the menu is re-entered.
Transport Control Buttons—The transport buttons are always active.
STOP : The STOP button has a dual function. When playing back a clip
(PLAY, FF, or REV) the first push of STOP acts as a pause mode: the playback
is paused, the current point of the clip is displayed, and the STOP button
flashes. A second push of STOP completely stops the playback and directs
Ki Pro's outputs into an E to E mode (the currently selected inputs bypass
to the outputs). To determine at a glance if the STOP button is in a "pause"
mode, note that the stop button will flash if media playback is paused. The
STOP button is fully illuminated in "stop" mode.
PLAY : Press PLAY to begin forward playback of the current clip at
normal speed.
RECORD : Press the red button to begin recording. Once in RECORD
mode, all other transport buttons are locked-out except the STOP button.
FFWD : Press button to begin fast playback of the current clip at 2x
speed. Successive pushes increase the speed to 4x, 8x, and 16x. (Pushing
the button after 16x speed is reached has no further effect.) When fast-
forwarding, audio is muted.
REV: Pressing REV when not lit, begins playback of the current clip in
reverse at 1x speed. Successive pushes increase the speed to 2x, 4x, 8x, and
16x. (Pushing the button after 16x speed is reached has no further effect.)
When playing in reverse, audio is muted for all speeds.
SELECT (up/down): The SELECT up/down buttons operate differently
depending on whether Ki Pro is in the TRANSPORT mode or the MENU
mode. In the TRANSPORT mode, the SELECT buttons select clips and
operate like "previous" and "next" keys. When a clip is selected, Ki Pro
"cues" it to the beginning. Note that ordering and playback of clips is
based on timestamp order (creation date), not clip name. However, in a
playlist, ordering and playback is determined by playlist order. In the
MENU mode, the SELECT buttons select parameters for adjustment.
Holding down either of the SELECT buttons causes them to repeat.
ADJUST (up/down): ): The ADJUST up/down buttons operate differently
depending on whether Ki Pro is in TRANSPORT mode or MENU mode. In
TRANSPORT mode, and in the "Pause" mode (single push of STOP from
PLAY mode), the ADJUST buttons "single step" the current clip at a rate of
one frame per button push (up=forward, down=reverse). In the MENU
mode, the ADJUST buttons adjust the selected parameter. Holding down
either of the ADJUST buttons causes them to repeat.
