Components of the channel ganging configuration

window
.
Feature Description
Gang 1,
Gang 2 Allows you to select which channels to gang together. You can have up to two gangs on
any one K2 Summit Production Client.
Record/
play same
clip on all
channels of
Gang If this box is checked:
Ganged channels can record multi-track audio and video. The controls on the first channel
affect all the channels in the gang, including settings for loop playback, continuous
record, and E-to-E.
Starting a record causes the same clip to be recorded on all the record channels in the gang.
The first channel displays the name of the clip and the number of the gang, G1 or G2. The
other record channels in the gang display “The channel is currently used by” in the
channel pane.
If you configure a gang of play channels and load a multi-track clip onto one channel, the
tracks are automatically loaded on the other channels in the gang. For example, if you
have four ganged play channels and load a clip with three tracks, the first three channels
load the three tracks.
If this box is not checked:
The settings on the first channel for loop playback, continuous record, and E-to-E affect
all the channels in the gang. Though the channels are labeled as a gang (G1 or G2), if
recording each channel functions as a single record channel. To begin recording, eject any
existing clip, select
New Clip and press the Record button on each channel.
If playing, the ganged channels can play different clips on each channel. The play and stop
controls are synchronized, but each clip must be loaded or ejected on a each channel.
Adding cue points to one clip does not affect the cue points on different clips in the other
channels.
This box is disabled if any of the channels in the gang are configured as ChannelFlex
channels.
