4.4 RECORD
13. Watching Channel B , push the STOP button on the Control Surface . Hmmm, that didn’t
seem to work. Let’s try something else.
14. Pull the T-Bar to about the middle of its stroke. Still watching Channel B ? See anything
happen? No.
Why did playback ignore our Control Surface operations and continue at normal speed? This is
because we did not first enable recording. Stopping (or jogging) the Speed of a LIVE source
would automatically kick playback into Delayed playback - if it could . However, this requires
3Play to be recording .
Let’s try all of those steps again, after enabling recording. Remember that Speed (for Channel B )
is still set to around 5o% ( Channel A is still be at the default speed, 100%)
15. Press the red REC (Record) button on the Control Surface, to enable capture.
