2.6.3 System Settings
In the System Settings menu, the options are Display Mode and
Brightness.
Brightness
You can use the Brightness menu to adjust the intensity of the display. Changes
you make in this menu are activated immediately, without pressing Enter .
Display Mode
Use Display Mode to choose the unit of adjustment displayed for pitch shifting:
frames , ¢ (cents) , or % (percent) .
Frame mode uses percent as the unit of adjustment. Adjustments are in increments of
0.1 percent. An additional setting of
+4.17% is included, for pitch shifting
presentations recorded at 25 fps but played back at 24 fps. The frame mode display
also indicates when the setting is appropriate for pitch shifting presentations recorded
at 24 fps but played back at 25 fps.
Cents represent musical cents, where 100 cents equals one semitone, and 1,200 cents
equals one octave. Model 585 offers a shifting range of –282 to +242 cents.
Percent mode operates in the same manner as frame mode in all but two ways: it lacks
the additional +4.17% setting, and does not indicate the values appropriate for
conversions between frame rates.
