4 – Operation : Initial Status
32 TASCAM DM-3200 Automation Guide
Initial Status
The Initial Status of a control is its value before the
first dynamic mix move is present. Until dynamic
mix moves are written to a control, there is no differ-
ence between the Initial Status of the control and its
Static position.
When dynamic mix moves are written to a control,
that control is no longer in Static mode. It is in
Dynamic mode. Any change to the mix data on such
control takes into account both the Initial Status of
the control and any Dynamic data present.
Editing the Initial Status
Once a control is in Dynamic mode, any new mix
moves written to that control will be dynamic mix
moves. If it becomes necessary to alter a control’s
starting point (Initial Status) before the first dynamic
move written, Initial Edit is used.
1 While holding
SHIFT, press INITIAL EDIT/ EDIT
to enter Initial Edit mode. The automation
system will stop reading dynamic data and all
controls will snap to their Initial Status posi-
tions.
2 Adjust any control to change its Initial Status.
In the case of switches, pressing a switch while
in Initial Edit mode will change its Initial Sta-
tus to reflect its new setting.
Hold
SHIFT and press INITIAL EDIT/ DISCARD
to return all controls to their unedited Initial
Status values while remaining in Initial Edit
mode.
Hold
SHIFT and press INITIAL EDIT/EDIT to
exit Initial Edit, saving changes.
