Play Modes

Select a Play type by clicking the Play hot toggle buttons above the controls. Choose
between: Play All or Play Range.

You can select one of three Play Modes by clicking on the Play Mode arrow to the left of the
slider control. You will step through the following modes:

Once (single arrow) – play once through in forward or reverse

Bounce (double-ended arrow) – play continuously, alternating between forward and

reverse play

Loop (double right-pointing arrow) – play repeatedly, looping in one direction

If you have designated an In/Out sub-segment you can use the hot text brackets (to the right
of the Play Mode arrow) to play either the entire clip [ ] or the marked segment

only { }.

Output Modes

Toggle the Play Mode to Output and standard VTR controls and machine control timecode
hot text will appear. Beneath the Output mode header are hot-buttons that allow you to
choose between two modes of output—Insert Edit or Print-To-Video. Print-To-Video and
Insert Edit will output the loaded clip from its in/out- points (if any exist) or from the first to
last frame (if no in/out-points have been set).

Play Controls for Insert Edit

Insert Edit

In this mode, you can select the Video/Audio content that you want to insert by checking the
desired content boxes at the left. Then set an in-point that the recording VTR will use to
initiate recording of your segment. Duration is determined by the length of the clip you are
outputting.

Note: The Preview Edit check-box controls whether the insert edit is in “Preview” mode or

not. In preview mode, the deck never goes into record but just simulates the edit without
putting anything to tape. You must un-check this box to perform the actual Insert Edit.
