Clip
The Clip field consists of a numeric value between 1 and 999. It is intended to indicate what clip
number the recording is. This field can be set manually and will increment each time a new file is
recorded. The Clip number will reset to 1 when the Reel number is changed.
Scene/Shot
The Scene/Shot field consists of a alpha-numeric value. Use this field to indicate a descriptive name
for the current scene or shot. A change to the Scene/Shot value will automatically reset the Take
value to 1.
Take
The Take field consists of a numeric value between 1 and 999. It is intended to indicate what take
number the clip is, relative to the scene. This field can be set manually and will increment each time
a new file is recorded. The Take number will reset to 1 when the Scene name is changed.
Transfering Files to a Computer
QuickTime files on PIX formatted storage volumes (2.5” drive, CF card, or any external storage
device) can be copied to a computer by removing the storage device from the PIX recorder and con-
necting it to a computer. Storage devices formatted with the PIX recorder use the exFAT filesystem.
( See “File Storage”, page 49 )
The Firewire 800 and USB 3.0 connectors on the PIX-CADDY are disabled when the PIX-CADDY is
attached to the PIX recorder. When attaching the PIX-CADDY to a computer, either the Firewire 800
or the USB 3.0 connection must be used; Not both.
Sound Devices recommends first copying files from the 2.5” drive or CF card to the computer first
and then editing the files. It is not recommended to edit files directly off of the 2.5” drive or CF card.
Do not copy files from a computer (or any other host device) to a drive that is intended to be used by the
PIX recorder. If this occurs, it is advisable to format the drive with the PIX recorder before making new
recordings.
