KAYENNE K-FRAME — User Manual

211

When the effect register is recalled, the first keyframe can, for example,
command the device to load and cue. When the effect runs, the device can
be commanded to play when a later keyframe with a play event is encoun-
tered on the timeline.

The device may not play if it has not fully cued when the effect is run. It is
up to the operator to build the effect to accommodate cue and load time.
Also, running effects with external device events backwards will not cause
the clip or tape to play backwards. The order of the commands will be
reversed and if the clip or tape plays at all it will not be at the anticipated
time or direction.

Timecode Entry

Timecode is entered in hours, minutes, seconds, frames format, with
optional • (dot) separators. Typing in partial values will enter the smaller
value. For example, typing in

5

enters five frames (00:00:00:05). Typing in

5 •

enters five seconds (00:00:05:00). Typing in

5 • 4

enters five seconds and

four frames (00:00:05:04). Typing in

5 • 4 • 3 • 2

enters five hours, four min-

utes, three seconds, and two frames (05:04:03:02).

You can enter timecode values without • (dot) separators. Simply enter the
exact value. Leading zeros are ignored. For example, 00:02:00:11 can be
entered by typing

2 0 0 1 1

,

0 2 0 0 1 1

, or

0 0 0 2 0 0 1 1

.

Multiple Events on the Same Keyframe

More than one external device event can be specified to occur in the same
keyframe. If more than one event is specified, they are sent to the device in
Load, Cue, Play order. For example, you can specify only

Load

which will

make the device load to the start of the clip, or you can specify

Load

and

Cue

which will load and cue the device to the entered timecode. Both

Play

and

Stop

cannot be specified on the same keyframe, however. Turning one on

automatically turns the other off.
