Metadata and Take List
Take List Overview
Metadata is used to convey the details
or content of a recording. A take can
consist of multiple metadata
fi
les.
The 688 Take List allows the sound
mixer to enter and edit the metadata
of broadcast WAV
fi
les, such as Scene,
Take, Notes, Track Names, and Circle
Status.
Applications that can read Bext and
iXML data will display the metadata of
fi
les generated by the 688. Metadata
can also be used to generate a Sound
Report in CSV
fi
le format directly from
the 688.
L
Editing metadata may be done directly
through the mixer’s interface or via the
Wingman app. For more information,
see
Wingman Integration: 6-Series
.
The Take List displays all tracks recorded across both media.
By default, when a recording is made, the name of the
fi
le is the take number,
such as T01.wav. From the Take List, a user can enter a scene name for the
next take so that when the recording occurs, the
fi
le name contains both scene
and take.
In the Take List screen, takes are listed in the left column in the order they
were recorded. The top item in orange text indicates the next take. The right
column displays details about the highlighted take.
Start timecode value of take
Highlighted take
The scene name of the take
What media the take is stored on
The folder that the take is stored in
The take number of the take
The date the take was recorded

In the example, the highlighted take is known as the current take. Edits made
to the current take will be applied to the next take and subsequent recordings
that follow. Previous takes are listed below the current take.
