The global automation function buttons in the Global Functions window are mirrored by
buttons on the Vision Control Panel (VCP) or in the ACM Solo Menu.
After recording moves and playback is stopped, faders and switches will normally “revert”
to their previously recorded positions at the location where Timecode was stopped. With
Bridge Gaps engaged, those “reverts” are flagged as speculative.
If the media is rewound. playback is started before the stopping point, and then played
through the stopping point, the “reverts” will playback as they normally would.
If instead you started playback from the stopping point or fast forward by an arbitrary
amount and start playback, those speculative reverts will be discarded and all intervening
data will be written over, as if Timecode had never stopped at all.
The speculative reverts will become permanent if you rewind to an earlier Timecode
location and start playback.
In other words, the positions of sections in Write or faders touched in Update will be
“held” or “remembered” when Timecode is stopped. If Timecode is restarted at that point
or later Timecode location, those positions will be applied between the stopping point and
later starting point and recording will be resumed at the starting point. The net result is
the “gap” between the previous stopping point and later starting point is “bridged” or
filled-in with the positions the sections where in at the stopping point.
Bridge Gaps only affects:
• Faders in Write when Timecode stops
• Faders in Update and are being touched when Timecode stops
• Switches in Write when Timecode stops
Bridge Gaps must be engaged before Timecode is stopped for this function to be
activated.
Bridge Gaps can be used to perform complicated edits incrementally, starting and
stopping playback without having your faders jump back to their previous positions each
time playback is stopped.
Bridge Gaps is also handy for bulk erasing moves over large sections of a song or scene.
Bridge Gaps: Allows section positions and modes at the point when
Timecode is stopped to be applied to a later location if Timecode is
started at a later location without rewinding
