Grabs both Head and Tail. Move
the transport to another SMPTE
time and press ENTER. Both the
Head and Tail are moved while the
audio maintains the same sync re-
lationship to Time Code. This re-
sults in a different part of the clip
being played, but sync being main-
tained.

Visible Sync Points

Every clip contains a Sync Point, which is by default at the head of the clip.
This Sync point may be moved using the"TRIM SYNC" function, after which it is available as a separate reference
point or MARK for use with JUMP - POINT commands.
The Sync point is now made visible as a black triangle when it is moved away from the Head or Tail of a clip, allowing
The user can now jog and place audio with reference to the sync point without using the JUMP command.

Super Trim

The operation of trim has a new option called Super Trim, which is switched on by accessing the System Page
(Blue-S).
When Super Trim is enabled, pressing the "head" Soft Key causes the clip to be extended immediately to its fullest
extent at the head. All the audio in the Master Recording is thereby exposed. During this Super Trim session, the
whole head of the clip is shown "above" the other clips ahead of it on the track, regardless of which clip actually
covers the other. From here you can do the following:
1.
Jog (with audio scrubbing) to any position and press ENTER. This will trim the clip to that position, or as far
as possible in that direction depending on the length of the Master Recording. Once the clip is trimmed, its correct
coverage of and by other clips is resumed.
2.
Press "head" again to retract the graphic display of the clip to its former position. Press "head" again at any
time to toggle between the normal and extended view of the clip.
3.
Press "head" or "tail" on any other clip to abandon editing this one.
Super Trim works exactly the same way if "tail" is pressed.
