4 – Operation

TASCAM DM-24 Automation
Write To End:
When the Write Revert Time is set to
∞
s
, you are
essentially telling the automation system to maintain
that control’s last setting from the point when auto-
mation recording ends, all the way to the end of the
program.
This is called Write To End. In this case, any switch
events existing in the time between the end of auto-
mation recording and the end of the program will be
erased.
NOTE
A Write/Trim To End operation must be completed by
stopping the time code. Manually disabling Write or
Trim mode while time code is running will not perform
a Write To End operation.
AUTO REVERT must be enabled to use Write To End.
See the diagram below to understand this Write to
End behavior:
