Generating Sound Reports
A sound report can be generated for all the fi les in any folder on the 788T. There are two methods
for creating a sound report. Each method will create a CSV fi le named SOUND_REPORT.CSV in the
target folder.
To generate a sound report in the current recording folder on all media, simultaneously press the
STOP and MENU buttons. A message will appear indicating that the reports are being created, fol-
lowed by a message indicating that the reports were created successfully. Push the TONE button to
accept this.
Using the STOP + MENU shortcut to create a sound report on each media will create a report that
derives information from the primary media depending on what is selecting in REC: MEDIA SELECT.
This method might not be preferred if different tracks are routed to different media with Track-to-Media
routing.
It is also possible to generate a single sound report in a single folder.
1. Press the HDD key to access the Take List.
2. Press the soft DRV (HDD) key to access the Drive Directory.
3. Use the Rotary Switch to highlight the desired folder.
4. Press the soft Options (Fast Forward) key to access the Drive Directory Options Menu.
5. Select the Create CSV option from the list. A message will appear indicating that the reports
are being created, followed by a message indicating that the reports were created success-
fully. Push the TONE butt on to accept this.
Sound Report Best Practices
Since sound reports on the 788T are generated per folder, fi le organization settings should be confi g-
ured so that a folder corresponds logically to each sound report.
See Folder Actions. For example: In a
project where fi les are handed in on a daily basis it would be benefi cial to set the Mid-Level folder to
something that changes daily (like <DAILY>), and the Bottom-Level folder to <NONE>.
