The History Tools
The following is a description of icons in the ‘Tools’ section:
Note: the ‘Crosspoint’ button sends crosspoint data, in a block, to the router’s crosspoint matrix.
Single Takes Tab
The ‘Single Take’ tab of the ‘Crosspoints’ page lets you perform 2 functions:
• Single takes
• Chop takes
When you perform single takes, you have the option of toggling (manually) between the input
you specify and the last input you specified. The output you specify remains the same when the
takes toggle from one to the other.
A chop toggles a single output between one input and another, at a certain rate (expressed as a
number of frames). The chop proceeds automatically: you start it and some time later, you stop
it. Chop takes are generally used for diagnostics.
Single takes and chop takes are recorded in the logging pane of the ‘Single Takes’ tab. See the
illustration that follows.
