8.1.2 Creating a Timecode Show

Creating a Timecode Show

Graphically with the touch screens or mouse:

Open a timecode pool window.

Touch one of the timecode show keys, you will get the timecode control bar for this show in the display on the right.

Enter the name for the timecode show using the PC keyboard.

Press the EDIT field in the timecode control bar, and the timecode editor will appear.

Using the command line:

EDIT TIMECODE X ENTER . Brings up the timecode editor and the timecode control bar for timecode show X. There is

no hardware key for TIMECODE on the grandMA, but you can enter this in the command line or into a macro by using the

text keyboard.

Combining the two methods:

EDIT and then touch a key in the timecode pool.

If the timecode show that you have selected was empty, there will be only the empty editor in front of you and you can

now start recording or manual editing.

8.1.3 Playing back a Timecode Show

Playing back a Timecode Show

Graphically with the touch screens or mouse:

Brings up a timecode control bar for the desired timecode show when touching a key in the timecode pool.

Use the cells with the cd player-like symbols to control the show playback.

Using the command line:

COMMAND TIMECODE X ENTER. COMMAND is one of the executor commands that you will find above the page keys.

You can use GO+ , PAUSE, <<< , >>> , ON and OFF.

Combining the two methods:

COMMAND (as described above) and then touch a key in the timecode pool.

Description of playback commands:

Status

Command Line

Description

STOP

OFF

Show is stopped, no output is generated.

PAUSE

Show is stopped, output is generated for current time.

PLAY

GO+

Show is running.

RECORD

STORE

Show is recording.

JUMP BACK

<<<

Show jumps to the next breakpoint before current time.

JUMP FORWARD

>>>

Show jumps to the next breakpoint after the current time.

If a show is generating output, the corresponding key in the timecode pool will show the current time. In case of

recording, this key is also blinking red with the note “REC”.

External / Internal Sync

PLAY and RECORD on the sync setting in the options menu for their behaviour.

If sync is set to internal, time runs continuously, based on the internal time base.
If sync is set to “SMPTE“, the current time of the timecode show depends on the SMPTE input signal. If MIDI is set, MTC
(Midi Timecode) will be used.

In the headline of the timecode pool you will find a SMPTE input indicator. Regardless of the shows using SMPTE, it will

always display the current SMPTE input signal together with the SMPTE frame format.

If a show is using SMPTE (external synchronisation), the local time within the show can differ from the external SMPTE
