QUALIFIER BUTTONS

Figure 80
SHIFT, CTRL, AND ALT
SHIFT, CTRL (Control) and ALT are qualifier buttons, similar to their familiar keyboard equivalents.
When pressed (and held down), they modify the outcome of other actions, typically providing
alternate or extended operations. (These combination operations are described in context as
they arise in this section.)
8.3

RECORD

The Record button toggles capture of a/v data to file(s) on mounted storage volumes
on or off. The specific sources to be recorded are configured in Startup when
creating the session (see Section 10.1, and also 10.2.3).
Figure 82
Hint: Whenever you enable recording, a special 'record event' row is added to the Clips List, as a
helpful reminder.
8.4

OUTPUT MODES (A, B, A+B)

Figure 83
Pressing the buttons labeled A or B switches control to the corresponding Output Mode (see also
sections 8.4 and 11.1). These two buttons are mutually exclusive – that is, at any given moment,
only one can be active.
