The LOCATE button causes the Transport to jump directly to the currently displayed Locate
Time. The Locate Time can be captured from the Current Time, set explicitly, or recalled from a
stored cue. Each time you change the time shown in the LOCATE TIME display, you must also
press the keyboard or Remote 48 ENTER key, respectively (depending on where you are
working), to actually update the Locate Time. Until the ENTER key is pressed the Locate Time
window on the Remote 48 is being used to preview time values. You can Locate directly to a
previewed time, but using the time for locating does not update the Locate Time for any other
purpose. Once entered, the Located Time can be further edited using the Remote 48 EDIT TIME
button.

The Locate Time defaults to a SMPTE time of 00:00:00:00 or BBT value of 1:1:0, but may
contain any time value within the 24-hour or 10,000-measure range of the Project. Once the LOC
position has been changed from its default value, the "current" LOC position is saved along with
the Project. The Locate Time defaults to a SMPTE time of 00:00:00:00 or BBT value of 1:1:0, but may

LOC time can be set in several ways.
• Capture the Current Time position (either on the fly or with the transport stopped) by
clicking on the CAPTURE button at the top of the Cue List window, or by holding
the [C
TRL ] key and clicking in the LOCATE time window in the Cue list, or by using
the keyboard shortcut [C TRL +l] (think Locate).
• In addition, LOC time can be entered or edited in the LOCATE time window in the
Cue list by clicking on the window to highlight a field, then either moving the mouse
pointer up and down to change the value or by entering a value from the keyboard.
See
Editing GUI times (page 55).
Observe that when the LOC time is set anywhere other
than at the beginning of the Project, a marker labeled
LOC indicating the LOC time appears in the bar above
the time scale ruler at the top of the track display.
• The LOC time can be changed by dragging the
LOC marker to a new point in the Project.
LOCATE is handy for marking a temporary working
location in the project. If you’re working on an edit
and want to be able to listen through it, drag the LOC marker to a couple of seconds before
your edit point. Then with AUTO PLAY engaged, when you click the LOC button, the
transport will jump back to your marked point and begin playing.

The Locate Time can be set in several ways.
