Logging and Digitizing (Capture)
Selecting/Creating a Rack (F)
The top right list box allows you to select or create a new Rack.
To cre ate a new Rack, click the icon to the left in the list box. A dialog box is displayed over the
inlay where you can enter a name for the Rack. The logged clips will be stored in this Rack until
you select another one. See“Creating New Folders/Racks” on page 213.
If one or more Racks already exist in the Project, double-click a suitable Rack in the list. The list
also contains Rack Folders for the Project, which you can also open by double-clicking them.
You can also configure that the last Rack used will be activated when the Logging Tool is called. See “Start
Logging Tool with last selected Rack” on page 134.
Controls (Player and Edit Buttons, G)
The buttons for controlling the player and for defining clips are located on the left below the inlay. These
buttons and their specific icons are found in many Avid Liquid modules.
The toolbars are configurable (see “Customizing Toolbars” on page 990). You can also call these buttons
via the keyboard. See “Modifiers and Keyboard Shortcuts (Defaults)” on page 997 and “A s s i g n Fu nc t i o n s
to Keyboard” on page 993.
Player Buttons
These buttons allow you to control a connected (linear) player. In other modules where non-linear data
is played, these buttons are used in the same way
, i.e. for a digitized clip, “rewind” means a direct jump to
the first frame in the clip/Sequence.
Play
Starts play. To stop play, click this button again or click Stop.
Stop
Stops play at the current position. To stop play, you can also click the Play button again.
Goto Start/Rewind
Rewinds the tape/jumps to the start of a clip/Sequence.
