As shown, the system is a tree structure starting from the root directory, ’Studio’.
Below this are a number of ’Users’, below each User a number of ’Projects’, below
each project a number of ’Titles’, and finally within each Title, a ’Cue List’ and a
number of ’Mix Passes’.
It is possible to create any number of Users, Projects, Titles and Mix Passes within
each level, the only limit is the amount of Hard Disk storage available for mix data.
Note that the mix data itself from each Mix Pass is only actually stored at the bottom
of the directory system, within each Title file. No mix data is stored at any other
level, so even if you create 50 User directories, you will not have used up any Hard
Disk Space until you start to save mixes in one of those directories.
On power-up, the console defaults to the bottom level, known as the ’Mix Page’, of
the directory which was last being used. This allows mixing to begin immediately
assuming the same user is still working on the same project. This page displays the
Cue List for the last title worked on, plus some touch-pads to allow access to other
pages and functions and the rest of the directory system.
So to view the directory system having powered up the console, carry out the
following instructions:
Exit the Mix Page by pressing the ’Project’ touch-pad on the touch screen, which
moves you upwards in the directory system by one level. You are now on the Project
Page.
Press the ’User’ touch-pad on the screen, which moves you upwards one more level,
to the User Page.
Press the ’Studio’ touch-pad on the screen to take you up finally to the Studio Page,
which is the top level in the directory system.
The Studio page
This consists of a list of Users, although with a new console from the factory, there
will be only one ’default’ user, ’User 0001’.
You can create as many user directories as necessary by pressing the ’New User’
touch-pad on the screen, and name them by pressing the ’Edit User’ touch-pad. A
newly created User is given the default name ’User 000X’ until it is edited.
Once you have more than one User directory, you can select the one you want by
either turning the jog wheel on the computer surround, or touching the up or down
arrows on the right hand side of the screen. This moves the list up or down through
the cursor line (two horizontal lines in the centre of the screen).
To activate the selected user, either touch the screen in the central area, or press
down on the jog wheel. In either case, you can only select the item which is between
the two lines of the cursor line.
Selecting a User takes you down to the next level down on the Directory system,
which is the User page.
Before exiting the Studio Page, let’s have a look at the peripheral pages available
at this level. Press the ’Studio Config’ touch-pad on the screen. This brings up the
’Studio Config’ page, which allows you to set up or change the following:
"The name of the studio (set to ’Soundcraft’ at the factory)
"The type of tape machine being used (set to Midi Timecode Master at the factory)
"The local date and time. (set to UK local time at the factory)
