API Audio 1608 Automation - Manual (Page 61)

Press the SEL (Select) button once the needed glide rate has been selected.
Highlight “OK” and press SEL (Select) to assign the selected glide rate to the
highlighted mix.
Highlight “Cancel” and press SEL (Select) to cancel.
NOTE: Changes to the glide rate do not apply to previously recorded fader moves.
Changing the glide rate does not affect any of the fader moves within the mix.
However, the new glide rate will be applied to the fader moves in any mixes derived
from this mix. So, when you change the glide rate in a mix you are really setting it for
any subsequent mixes made from that mix.
Only one glide rate can be assigned to a mix at a time. However, multiple glide rates
can be used within a mix. After moves have been recorded using one glide rate, the
rate can be changed and the subsequent moves will use the new rate.
NOTE: When the glide rate for a mix is changed, the mix is not automatically made
current. The mix must be made current for the changed glide rate to be
used in a mix.
NOTE: The glide rate for new moves is always determined by the current mix.
Mixes created earlier or later may have different glide rates. The system will
apply the glide rate set for whatever mix is current.

Glide rate is set in the Mix
Properties dialog box.
To change the glide rate of a mix,
highlight the “Glide Rate:” selection
field and press the SEL (Select)
button. The “Glide Rate:” field will

needed glide rate and press SEL
(Select).
The nine (9) glide rate choices are shown
to the left.
Glide rate is expressed in decibels per
frame (dB/frame). The lower the glide rate
number, the slower the rate of return. At
higher glide rates faders essentially “snap”
back.
Mix color is set in the Mix
Properties dialog box.
To change the color of a mix,
highlight the “Mix Color:” selection
field and press the SEL (Select)
button. The “Mix Color:” field will
