REV: Pressing REV when not lit, begins playback of the current clip in reverse at 1x
speed. Successive pushes increase the speed to 2x, 4x, 8x, and 16x. (Pushing the button
after 16x speed is reached has no further effect.) When playing in reverse, audio is muted
for all speeds.
SELECT (up/down): The SELECT up/down buttons operate differently depending on
whether Ki Pro is in the TRANSPORT mode or the MENU mode. In the TRANSPORT mode,
the SELECT buttons select clips and operate like “previous” and “next” keys. When a clip is
selected, Ki Pro “cues” it to the beginning. Note that ordering and playback of clips is
based on timestamp order (creation date), not clip name. However, in a playlist, ordering
and playback is determined by playlist order. In the MENU mode, the SELECT buttons
select parameters for adjustment. Holding down either of the SELECT buttons causes
them to repeat.
ADJUST (up/down): The ADJUST up/down buttons operate differently
depending on whether Ki Pro is in TRANSPORT mode or MENU mode. In
TRANSPORT mode, and in the “Pause” mode (single push of STOP from PLAY
mode), the ADJUST buttons “single step” the current clip at a rate of one
frame per button push (up=forward, down=reverse). In the MENU mode, the ADJUST
buttons adjust the selected parameter. Holding down either of the ADJUST buttons
causes them to repeat.
DELETE CLIP Button: Dedicated button that when pressed, deletes the currently selected clip. When pressed,
the system displays a precautionary “ARE YOU SURE?” prompt. Press the up-arrow
ADJUST button to delete the clip, or the down-arrow ADJUST button to abort the
deletion. When a clip is deleted, the next clip is cued for deletion. Pressing DELETE CLIP,
STOP or any other button—while “ARE YOU SURE” is displayed—cancels the deletion.
Pressing any button other than ADJUST up always aborts deletion.
DELETE CLIP can be used in either the TRANSPORT menu or the MEDIA menu. When
pressed in the TRANSPORT menu with a current clip active (PLAY, REV, FF, RECORD), the
active mode will continue until the DELETE CLIP is confirmed.
SLOT Button: The SLOT button serves two purposes. First, it selects which storage is accessed by the
system—either the storage module slot or one of the ExpressCard slots (only Slot 1 is
functional in firmware version 3.0). Second, the SLOT button is used to unmount a
currently selected piece of media.
Pushing the slot button cycles between unmounting media and selecting media. This
function is only active when in the “STOP” mode and requires a “PRESS STOP TO
CONFIRM” if not stopped. After you select a slot, the system returns to the last selected
clip and timecode for that slot. If the media has been changed since the slot was last
selected (physically removed/media replaced), then the “first” clip on the media will be
“cued” to its start point. If inserted media has any issues, additional prompts may be
displayed as appropriate such as: “WARNING Backup and Reformat” or “WARNING Media
Unrecognized.”
NOTE: On power up, the storage module is the initial storage system selected and accessed by Ki Pro.
Disk Storage Module Release
Button:
Press and hold to physically release a storage module from the unit; you must pull out
the storage module while pressing the button. This action prevents a storage module
from accidental removal while recording/playing. For safe removal of any media, either
ADJUST SELECT
Caution!
Not using the SLOT button to unmount the media can lead to issues with the media if
the media is removed prior to this action.
