Before Logging/Digitizing: Checklist
Before you start logging and/or digitizing, be sure to check the following important settings and options:
Is the correct source selected (page 117)?
Has a Reel been selected/named and a Rack found (page 119)?
Has a Media Format been selected (page 125)?
Have the correct capture drives (volumes) been specified (page 127)?
Have Source Tracks (audio/video) been specified (page 124)?
Has Mono/Stereo been defined (page 125)?
Are problems with the timecode to be expected (page 136)?
Even while the Logging Tool is active, objects in the Timeline and in the Project remain accessible and can
be edited.
