Transport Control

The Lynx KCU will recognize the MMP-16 unit and will control all of the normal transport functions of
the unit. Note that the KCU does not support reverse play of multiple MMP units. When using the Roll
Back key for reverse play, it is first necessary to solo a machine.

Track Record Arm/Select (MMR-8 Only)

To arm a track for record or to select a track for an edit or goto operation, press the Track key on the KCU
and then press the appropriate number key on the calculator keypad to select or arm the desired track. The
Slip operation, as well as goto Prev/Next edit, goto Head/Tail, and Clear/Paste will operate only on tracks
that have been selected in this manner. If one of these operations is attempted, but a track is not selected,
the KCU display will prompt you to select a track first.

Head/Tail

Hold CLR while pressing the Head or Tail key to set the current time to the beginning or end of the
material on the selected track(s). You may then play from that point, or store the value in the desired
timecode register (press STO then the appropriate key on the Calculator).

Slip Track/Region

The K900 KCU software has a Slip key in the place of the key previously labeled END PT in the Special
Functions section of the KCU. Pressing this key puts the KCU in a “Trim” mode to allow slipping the
selected material forward or backward in time. The selection is defined as all material located between the
In and Out timecode registers on tracks that have been armed/selected as described above (see Track
Record Arm/Select). Upon pressing Slip, the – and + keys will highlight and the Wheel will be in Trim
mode. Use the Wheel or keys to enter a trim value to indicate how far the selected region will be slipped.
To end the operation and complete the Slip, press either the Trim key or the Slip key. Note that slipping
material within a track will automatically overwrite any previous material on the selected track(s) at the
new location.

To slip an entire track, use the goto Head/Tail commands (Hold CLR while pressing the Head or Tail
key) to set the current time and then store the value in the appropriate register (press STO then the In or
Out key on the Calculator) before executing the Slip command. To slip a single edit in an EDL, use the
PREV and NEXT keys in a similar fashion to locate the beginning and end of the Edit on the desired track
and store the time value for the beginning and end of the edit region in the In and Out registers before
executing the Slip command.

Prev/Next

Hold CLR while pressing the PREV and NEXT keys to set the current time to the beginning or end of an
edited region on the desired track. You may then play from that point, or store the value in the desired
timecode register (press STO then the appropriate key on the Calculator).

Undo/Redo

Hold CLR while pressing the Undo or Redo key to undo or redo the previous edit operation. The MMP-
16 supports ten levels of Undo and Redo. The MMP display will indicate which level of Undo or Redo is
affected by the operation, up to the maximum or ten.
