Circle Take

Take names can be altered to include the “@” symbol preceding the fi le name. This can be used to
highlight a take as a “Circled Take”. Circled Takes are often used to identify good takes for transfer-
ring. Circle Take information is also embedded within the BEXT and IXML data chunks.

To Circle or uncircle a take, perform the following steps:

1. Press the STOP key to end the recording.

2. Press the HDD key to enter the Take List.

3. Scroll

among

fi les to highlight the fi le as a Circled Take.

4. Press the soft EDIT (PLAY) key to enter the Take Edit Menu.

5. Highlight and select the Circle option from the list. This will toggle the Circle indication on

and off .

name of the Top-Level folder defi ned in the Setup Menu option FILE: FOLDER OPTIONS. Project

plied to both the fi le name and the Scene tag in the iXML and bEXT chuncks.

Take number edits can be made during and after recording. Any changes to the Take are applied to
both the fi le name and the Take tag in the iXML and bEXT chunks.

Set and Clear Copy Flags

Copy Flags are useful for selecting various takes to be copied from one media to another. By
default, Takes recorded by the 788T have their Copy Flag set to On. If the Setup Menu option
FILE: COPY FLAG RESET

is enabled the Copy Flags will automatically clear after the fi le has been

copied from one media to another.
