ARTISTS/PROJECTS
Are the headings for the jobs in progress e.g. session, album or show.
Associated with the project will be further information such as details
about the session, producer, engineer etc.
TITLES
Represent specific sections of programme material - a track on an album
for example, or a scene in a show. Creation of a new title implies defining
a START and END time for the programme material e.g. against SMPTE
timecode in the case of a present-day tape recorder. Once a TITLE has
been defined, it can be used for control of the programme (e.g. PLAY
TITLE ENTER) in addition to being the reference as regards data storage.
START and END times can be re-defined at any time.
MIXES
A MIX is a specific ‘performance’ of a title. Each mix contains all the
data necessary to play the title, all its automated moves, and all static
settings including the input and output set-ups and assignments. Many
different MIXES may be created for a title, and the final MIX may well be
created by combining sections from several earlier mixes.
CUES
CUE points are specific listed time points within a title. They are
numbered for quick reference and may be given names, which is normally
more appropriate. CUE points may be added either explicitly by typing, or
by actions ‘on the fly’.
TRACK LISTS
A TRACK LIST refers to the list of sound sources on a specific piece of
storage e.g. the multitrack tape.
NOTES
The list fields for entities such as Titles, Mixes and Cues have NOTES
columns indicated by the note icon. Clicking on this column adjacent to
the appropriate item causes a NOTES pop-up to appear.
