Channel Strip [AUTO] Buttons 149
02R96—Owner’s Manual
AUTO REC: This button works the same as the REC button except that it remains on when
Automix recording is stopped. It appears highlighted while Auto Record mode is on.
REC: This button is used to engage Record-Ready mode, in which Automix recording starts
automatically as soon as the specified timecode source starts. Unlike the AUTO REC button,
however, it’s turned off when recording is stopped. It flashes in Record-Ready mode, and is
highlighted during recording. This button can also be used to engage Automix recording
during playback. To do this, while the PLAY button is highlighted (i.e., during playback),
press the REC button (it flashes in Record-Ready mode). Then press the PLAY button to
start recording. This button can also be used to stop recording.
PLAY: This button is used to start Automix recording and playback when the timecode
source is set to internal. When an external timecode source is selected, while the external
timecode is being received, recording and playback are started, and this button is turned on
automatically. If Automix is stopped by pressing the STOP or ABORT button, recording or
playback can be restarted by pressing this button so long as timecode is still being received.
This button can also be used in conjunction with the REC button to punch in recording
during Automix playback.
STOP: This button is used to stop Automix playback and recording. It appears highlighted
while Automix is stopped.
ABORT: This button is used to abort the current recording without updating the existing
Automix data.
Channel Strip [AUTO] Buttons
The channel strip [AUTO] buttons are used to arm channels in Record-Ready
mode, and to punch channels in and out during recording.
The [AUTO] button indicators operate as follows:
• Off: Automix playback disabled
• Green: Automix stopped or playing
• Orange: Record-Ready mode
• Red: Recording (even for individual parameters, see page 156)
• Flashing red: Takeover in progress
• Flashing green: indicates that a fader is inactive, for example, when you continue touching
a fader after actual punch out has occurred when using the Takeover Edit Out mode.
