Teac MMR-8 v2.0 - Manual (Page 6)

Tascam MMR-8/MMP-16 Owner’s Manual • Version 2.0 Update 6
Inside the MMR8 Projects folder, another folder is created with the name of the Project (as defined
in setup menu 800 when the recording was first made). In the case of a Macintosh disk which is
simply mounted on an MMR or MMP, a default Project folder called MMR Project is created. A
new folder labeled with the name of the Project will be created for each new Session recorded on
the MMR-8. Here is an example of several Project folders nested inside the MMR8 Projects folder:
Each of these folders contains the Pro Tools Session file and Audio File and Fade File folders for
that Session, as explained on the following page. Note that Sessions created on the Pro Tools
system may be placed elsewhere within the disk filing system. Sessions created on the MMR-8 will
always be placed here. Inside the Session folders, the system automatically creates two new folders
labeled Audio Files and Fade Files. If a Pro Tools Session has been recorded, there will also be a
Pro Tools Session file. The contents of a typical project file folder created when a Session is
recorded to an MMR-8 would look like this:
All sound designer II files recorded for this Session will be placed in the folder labeled Audio Files.
The Fade Files folder is automatically created so that Pro Tools has a place to store any fade files
the system may create. The MMR does not create Pro Tools fade files, but will play them back.
The MMR does generate the proper fade file descriptor so that Pro Tools can later generate
appropriate fade files. When opening a Session on Pro Tools that was created on the MMR, Pro
Tools will alert the user that fades are missing. The user can then choose Skip All from the Pro
Tools dialogue and Pro Tools will generate the missing fade files. The MMR-8 and MMP-16 will
also perform default fades in real time according to the default fade settings in setup menu 510. If
any fade files are missing from a Session created using Pro Tools, the MMR and MMP will simply
play a real-time linear crossfade of the appropriate length in place of the missing fade file.
