Project Setup 

The  Open  Project  and  New  Project  buttons  allow  the  user  to  create  a  new 
project or open a previously existing project.

New Project

The project setup screen selects the location for the main project file (<proj-
ect>.sil) and all of the individual captures. The project can be stored on any 
drive - exepect the system drice C:\ - with a drive letter mapped into the system 
representing an internal, external or network share as long as the continuous 
throughput to the drive is at least 15MB/sec.

IMPORTANT:

Do not use the C: drive as this is the system drive. Filling up this drive will dis-
able recording.

The directory tree is negotiated by selecting subdirectories to move down the 
tree or the double dot (..) to move up one level. The onscreen keypad is used 
to enter a project name. 

For computer operation, the keyboard can be used for file name entry.

Open Project

Use this menu to access an excisiting project saved on a drive 

 

Timecode Settings

T

ype: Record Run

The timecode increments only when recording; i.e. the clock does not incre-
ment if not in recording mode.

Type: Free Run

The timecode always increments.

Source: Preset

This mode uses the timecode setting from the Preset Timecode Settings dialog 
area. Can be used in record or free run modes.

Source: Slave LTC

The preset timecode settings in the dialog section area ignored. The timecode 
is read from the external Adrienne USB time code reader.

Source: Time of Day

In this mode, the PC clock is used.

Preset TimeCode Settings

This section is used to input the timecode.
