• Select a case convention and maintain it throughout a project. A
single tape can be listed as several different tapes if you alter the
case of the letters. For example, if you type a single name as
SUNSET, Sunset, and sunset on three different occasions, all three
names appear. This can cause problems when keeping track of
clips during the logging process.
• Be cautious when changing a tape’s name. After you provide a
name for a tape source, any change to the tape’s name automati-
cally changes that tape name everywhere it occurs. If you decide
later to change the name of one of the tapes from 001 to 999, every
reference to tape 001 changes to a reference to tape 999.
