SAVING A PROJECT WITH A DIFFERENT NAME

To save a project with a different name simply enter a suitable ten character name from a PS/2
keyboard connected to the RE32. As you type, you will receive this screen:
The PROJECT NAME field is automatically 'opened' for naming. The bottom line will prompt you to
enter the name and complete the action by pressing EXECUTE (or RETURN on the external
keyboard).
If the name has a number in it (i.e. PROJECT 1), you can save it with a new number just by
pressing any of the number keys on the numeric keypad. For example, to save PROJECT 1 as
PROJECT 2, simply press 2, EXECUTE, EXECUTE.
If the name you give the project already exists, you will receive this prompt:
You should press EXECUTE to overwrite the file or EXIT to cancel the process.
Pressing EXECUTE will save the project with the new name and you will leave this page.
You can also use the SAVE NEXT key to save the project with a unique name automatically
generated. The basic name is retained and a unique number is appended to the end. Pressing
SAVE NEXT will display this prompt:
Pressing EXECUTE saves the file with a unique numeric suffix and will return you to the screen
you were in previously. EXIT will cancel the process. Please note, however, that the last four
characters in the name are reserved for the auto-naming process to allow for up to 9,999 unique
names. For example, if you were to use SAVE NEXT with a file called PROJECT 1, pressing F5/F6
- SAVE NEXT - would save the file as PROJEC 1. The next project you save would be called
PROJEC 2, and so on.

SAVING LOCATOR MEMORIES OR OTHER SETTINGS

When a project is saved, if that project has locate memories associated with it, they will also be
saved. A 'settings' file will also be saved automatically which will save the sample rate, timecode
settings, etc., relevant to the project. The status of the track select keys (PLAY, RECORD, EDIT)
will also be saved along with the status of keys such ON-LINE, CYCLE, PREROLL etc., allowing
you to return to exactly the same state as you left the project when you saved it. If you have been
making recordings in the project you are saving and have named recordings specifically, the last
name you created will also be saved allowing you to return to the project and carry on recording
where you left off.
