14.

Put the PGM PST A bus in

Hold

to prevent the effect from changing its

source.

15.

Recall and run the effect. Both DDR channels will roll in sync and the
system will mix the key on air at the instant they play.

To Load a Clip and Play On Air Later with Auto Start:

1.

Follow the

Preparation for Control

procedure on

page 243

.

2.

In the Timeline Events menu, touch the button of the desired device to
delegate the menu to that device.

3.

Touch the

Load

button on the right. If the correct clip is not displayed,

touch the data pad and select the clip from the list.

4.

Set up the Main panel to the desired state, making sure the DDR source
is not selected on the PGM PST A bus. DDRs cannot cue and buffer
instantaneously, so should not be placed on-air immediately when the
effect is recalled.

5.

Learn this state to an E-MEM register.

6.

Touch the

Clear Events

button on the right to un-select the Load

command. This helps prevent accidentally creating unwanted load and
cue commands when editing effects later.

7.

Make sure the Machine Control subpanel is delegated to the
appropriate device, then turn on the

Auto Start

button on the subpanel.

Each device has its own auto start flag. Note that this is not a
keyframeable E-MEM control, and so must be selected manually for
use.

8.

Recall the register. The clip will load.

9.

After allowing sufficient time for the clip to load and buffer (which
varies with different DDR models), take the DDR on-air. The clip will
play automatically.

Because a Stop command was not entered, the clip will continue to play till
it reaches its end, or is stopped with the Machine Control panel or by some
other means.

Building an Event List

The event list editor is designed for speed and does not follow traditional
editing operations. For example, a normal insert operation would have the
operator select the insert point in the event list, select the clip to be inserted
in the browser, and then press Insert Before or Insert After. Instead, the
Event List editor makes insert and replace operations a mode and modifies
what happens when a clip in the browser is touched. This allows an event
list to be built by turning on Insert After, then touching clips in the order
