7-7-9 Film Mode

Note

1

AUTO ISOL can be pressed at any time to check
which channels are isolated. It has a momentary
action whilst the tape is rolling.

2

Saving a MIX or SNAPSHOT will cause the
isolated settings to be stored. A COPY from an
isolated channel will also take the isolated settings.

3

Loading a MIX or SNAPSHOT will cause the
isolated settings to be overwritten. A COPY to
isolated channels will overwrite isolated settings.

General

In Film Mode, Faders Cuts and Pans are isolated from
{GLOBAL DROP-IN}, {GLOBAL DROP-OUT} and
{READY CANCEL} for Audition functions.

Note

Film Mode is operational only whilst {AUDITION} is selected.

Faders, Cuts and Pans can still be automated at the
same time as other controls, but on a local basis. In
other words, faders can be left ‘ready enabled’ or in
Touch Write and {READY CANCEL} will not affect
them, for example.

To enable or disable Film Mode

Type { F }, { I }, { L }, { M } and {ENTER} on the
QWERTY keyboard for a pop-up requesting
confirmation. Click on OK or press {ENTER}. Use the
same command line to disable if already enabled.

Film Mode for Knobs

Turning any knobs will set them into ready absolute
mode indicated by their red LEDs flashing. The effect
they will have on the audio will also be heard, or
auditioned. Once satisfactory, press {GLOBAL DROP-IN}
to write the auditioned settings, indicated by the red
LEDs lighting solidly. When the new setting is written
press {GLOBAL DROP-OUT} to drop back to ready and
knobs return to their previous settings. Press
{READY CANCEL} to return to a ‘safe’ mode.

Note

{READY CANCEL} will not work for knobs with an audition
setting. To return a knob to its previous non-audition
setting de-select and re-select
{AUDITION}.

Film Mode for Switches

Pressing a switch will change its state from on to off or
vice versa and set it into ready absolute mode at the
same time. Its effect will also be heard or auditioned.
Press {GLOBAL DROP-IN} to write the new setting and
{GLOBAL DROP-OUT} when complete. The switch will
return to its orignal state. Note that the switch will still
be in a ready status. This can be verified by selecting
{READY ABSOLUTE}, when all switches in ready
absolute will flash. Press {READY CANCEL} to return
to a ‘safe’ mode.

Note

{READY CANCEL} will not work for switches with an audition
setting. To return a switch to its previous non-audition
setting de-select and re-select
{AUDITION}.

Copy Audition values

QUICK COPY (see section 7-6-8) used in Film Mode
works on automation ready controls only. The
following conditions must be in place:

• Film Mode must be enabled.

{AUDITION} must be set on.

{COPY STATIC} must be set on, or both

{COPY STATIC} and {COPY DYN} must be set to off.

In this case QUICK COPY functions will copy the
Audition settings only from those controls set in
automation Ready ABS and Ready TRIM. The
destination controls will be set into Ready ABS and
TRIM during the QUICK COPY operation.
