Now, you have a simple event list. You can, of course, record more moves, more parameter
changes, and longer sequences using this basic procedure. Automation data to multiple cards
can be simultaneously recorded using external MIDI controllers for control of multiple cards.
Playback
Click on the Play button to start playback of the list.
Click on the Automation List Play button to enable the list, and start the audio/timecode
source. You will hear the changes made and see the list change to indicate the events played.
Note that when an EDL is recorded using one time code frame rate, then played back at a
different frame rate, NuVerb recalculates the position of the events to maintain their relation-
ship to the picture or other material used for synchronization. The Hot Palette display will
change to reflect incoming time code, as will the display in the
Options
menu. Note that the
speed difference between 29.97 and 30 is not supported in MIDI, and that all calculations of
frame position in NuVerb take into account only frame count.
Saving an Automation List
Select
Save
from the
File
menu to bring up a dialog box that allows you to name your list
and file it.
The programs necessary to play back the list are stored with the list. This makes the list “free
standing” and not dependent on any of the libraries from which you may have selected the
original programs. Select
Save
from the
File
menu to bring up a dialog box that allows you to
name and file your list.
Go ahead and save the list we just created. Make sure it is not Play-enabled, and click the close
box in the upper left hand corner to close the list.
