Auditioning Cut Edits
The play button in the centre of the window is used for auditioning the Cut’s start or end edit points, depending on
whether the
Start
or
Cut Tail
button is active in the window.
Note that the audition play function is replicated by the
Master
scroller push-switch.
When the Cut’s
Start
button is active, it is possible to just listen to the relevant opening section of the Cut by activating
the
Post Roll
button followed by the play button. The
Post Roll
value is the length of time the file will audition for
before stopping or looping back to the start, and is set by touching its value box and using the keypad pop-up which appears.
Post Roll
is measured from the end of the fade in, as shown below.
Similarly, when the Cut’s
Cut Tail
button is active, it is possible to just listen to the relevant closing section of the Cut by
activating the
Pre Roll
button followed by the play button. The
Pre Roll
value is the length of time before the Cut Tail
point at which the audition will start, and is set by touching its value box and using the keypad pop-up which appears.
Pre
Roll
is measured back from the start of the fade out.
Note that the
Post Roll
and
Pre Roll
title boxes are simply on-off buttons and do not set the
Master
Scroller to
controlling their value.
When the
Loop
button is active, touching the audition play button plays through the cross-fade between the end of the
file and the start of the same file as defined by the
Start
and
Cut Tail
times (as if the Cut were looping), allowing file
transitions to be auditioned.
Note that
Pre Roll
and
Post Roll
are always active when the
Loop
function is on.
Note also that where there is no fade in, the new track will start at the end of the fade out, not the start. See Page 11 for
details.
Note also that no progress is displayed at the bottom of the window when the Cut is playing on
Loop
.
