Version 1.04
February 17, 2006
New Features:
•
System optimizations have been added which result in a more responsive overall feel
to the system and smoother screen updates, especially at the highest sample rates.
•
Pre-record functionality has been improved. It now pre-records "forward" by
advancing the timeline while in pre-record until the buffer is full. An on-screen text
message helps to indicate what is happening:
o
"Filling Pre-Record Buffer"
o
"Pre-Record Buffer Full"
When in auto-append mode with Pre-Record enabled, pressing Pause causes the
timeline to jump to the end of audio, enter monitor mode, and time starts moving
as the pre-record buffer is filled.
If not in auto-append, the timeline starts where it is at and pre-record commences
from that point forward.
This means it is now possible to pre-record starting at zero. It also means that
"abutted" recordings with pre-record will no longer overlap previous audio.
When pre-recording (pause) is cancelled (i.e. Stop is pressed) the system now
returns to the timeline location where pre-recording had started.
•
Added "tTAPE=YYMMDD " string to the description field of the Broadcast Wave
audio files to support automated sync & import with Avid systems.
•
The take number now continues to be displayed after recording has stopped. Pressing
another transport key, retake, or moving the playhead in time clears it back to normal
behavior.
•
A "please wait" screen has been added to record stop processing to indicate large
pending buffer writes in progress.
•
The timecode value entry method has been changed to be easier to use with a
keyboard. The Up/Down Arrow keys will change the highlighted field value (without
needing to press Enter first). The Left/Right Arrow keys and Tab/Shift+Tab navigate
from field to field.
•
A seamless new-take feature has been added where hitting the REC key during a
recording (10 secs or greater since last the record started) closes the current file and
opens a new one, creating a new take.
•
An S/PDIF slip indicator has been added to the audio clock status page
