Sequences: If it is necessary to make another production with the same recorded mate-
rial, a new sequence is defined. In the following example, only the takes 2,
3, and 4 should be edited, but in reverse order.
1 2 3 4
take 1 take 2 take 3 take 4
For this purpose, create a new sequence with the Sequence Editing feature,
insert the required takes in their new order (takes 4, 3, and 2), and the new
sequence will be:
4 3 2
take 4 take 3 take 2
You can now start with further editing, like changing markers, renumber-
ing, cutting or re-arranging audio information, or adjusting levels.
With a few keystrokes you can switch to another available sequence on the
disk, and start playing, recording, or editing.
Note: Creating new sequences does not need additional audio file capacity on a
disk. There is only a new small EDL file, describing how to play the same
audio data in a different way.
1.3.2 Non-Destructive Editing
The D424 is providing non-destructive editing. Because all editing proc-
esses are simply instructions on how to play the original sound files, the
original audio data remain untouched during the whole editing process.
The following processes therefore only modify the sequence data, not the
original audio data:
• Creating, deleting or moving markers.
• Deleting, erasing and inserting audio elements.
• Changing the order of takes.
• Adjusting output levels.
It is possible to have several sequences on the same disk representing dif-
ferent variations of the same basic audio material. Each sequence stores
the editing data into its own sequence file, but will make use of the same
audio files.
Without explicitly deleting sound files, which has to be done with a sepa-
rate menu utility, the original data can be re-used at any time. It is hardly
possible to delete audio data by accident.
