Fader Return & Trim Edit Modes
The following illustrations show how the return and trim modes affect levels.
These are the original, or previously recorded level changes.
These are the original level changes with the new fader move shown in gray. The two
vertical lines indicate the duration of the fader edit.
With the fader edit complete, the level changes look like this. The level is lowered and
remains the same until the next level change in the previously recorded data occurs.
If trim was on, the level would be lowered relative to the number of fader steps (see trim
on page 190) and the previously recorded level change occurring within the edit period
would still occur.
If return was on, the level would be lowered relative to the number of fader steps (see
trim on page 190) but then return to the level previously recorded at the end of the
fader edit. The TIME parameter determines how long it takes the level to return to the
previous value, and affects only the normal channel faders. It’s recorded as cross fade
data and is listed as XF data on the off-line Event Edit page.
If both trim and return were on, the level would be lowered relative to the number of
fader steps (see trim on page 190) and the previously recorded level change occurring
within the edit period would still occur. At the end of the edit period, however, the level
would return to the level previously recorded, and subsequent level changes would not
be affected. The TIME parameter determines how long it takes the level to return to the
previous value, and affects only the normal channel faders.
