Playing a Cut 

There are a number of ways to play a cut.  

 
Play a Cut Using a Hot Key 

If the cut has been assigned to a Hot Key, simply press the hot key to play the cut. Refer to 

Assigning A Cut To a Hot Key

 on Page 10 for instructions on assigning a cut to a Hot Key. 

 
Play a Cut  by selecting the cut in the Display Module window 

A cut that is currently displayed on the Display Module can be played simply by Pressing 

PLAY

To display a cut in the Display Module, use the 

SCROLL KEYS

.  

 
To locate a cut by name or index number, use the 

FIND

 key. Refer to 

Locating A Cut Using 

FIND

 on Page 18. 

 

Play a Cut Using the rear-panel GPI 

Instant Replay includes a General Purpose Interface (GPI) that duplicates the P

LAY 

button. It is 

on a 1/8” mini phone jack on the back panel. Connect a momentary switch (console button, 
footswitch, etc.) to the back panel jack marked GPI/PLAY. This must be enabled before it can be 
used. 

To enable GPI, press 

M

ENU

->CONFIGURATION->GPI INPUT

 then 

ENTER 

Select ENABLE using the SCROLL KEYS. Press 

ENTER

 

When you activate the remote momentary switch, Instant Replay will behave as if you had 
pressed 

P

LAY

. You can also initiate recording remotely by putting Instant Replay in Record 

Ready and activating the remote switch. 

Note that activating the remote switch will also CANCEL P

AUSE 

if it is active. While Instant 

Replay is Paused, pressing a Hot-Key displays the Assigned Cut’s title and statistics but does not 
play it. This lets you check the Hot-Key assignment silently, and is most useful in a live 
broadcast or performance application.  For example, an engineer can find and cue up a Hot-Key 
Cut to be played, and on-air talent can start playback with the remote switch. 

Pausing a Cut 

 

Press

 

P

AUSE

 TO 

interrupt playback of a Cut. Press 

PAUSE

 again to resume playback.

Note that while Instant Replay is paused, pressing a Hot-Key displays the Assigned Cut’s title and 
statistics, but the Cut will not play until P

AUSE 

or P

LAY 

is pressed.  Several Hot-Keys can be pressed 

in series to see what Cuts are assigned to them, allowing the Hot-Key Assignments to be reviewed 
silently.  Only the last one pressed will play when Pause is released.
