5.3.1.2 Dynamic o­bjects
A Dynamic object is defined as any automatable control whose value changes
at one or more timecode locations within a Mix Pass. Any switch, fader, ro-
tary control, and some GC items (automation objects) may be classified as a
‘Dynamic object’. All moves applied to a Dynamic object are remembered
by the automation and replayed at the corresponding timecode location.
Dynamic controls may be adjusted at any time during the mix process and
recorded to a new Mix Pass using WRITE or TRIM automation modes. In
this way, the value of selected Dynamic objects is updated from pass to pass.
Dynamic controls may also be Auditioned and/or ‘pre-set’ before a punch-
in.
All objects will remain static until a move is recorded. Once a move is record-
ed, the object becomes a dynamic control. A dynamic control may be made
static by erasing all recorded moves for that control for the entire pass.
The majority of this document discusses the automation of Dynamic con-
trols.
