Auto punch operations
For units supporting auto punch, the three keys:
RHSL, IN/OUT and CLEAR are used to set punch
points and perform punch operations.
It is a good idea to start this process with at least one
track armed for recording:
1 Press
RHSL so that the indicator lights. Play
back the source, and press the
RECORD key at
the punch-in point (it will flash). Press
PLAY at
the punch-out point.
The
RHSL indicator should now light steadily.
2 Press the
RHSL key to enable rehearsal mode.
Press
PLAY, and playback will start from the
pre-roll position. At the in point, the
RECORD
key flashes, and goes off at the
OUT point.
Repeat the rehearsal until you are happy, and
then press the
IN/OUT key. The indicator
flashes. Pressing
PLAY starts playback at the
pre-roll point. Playback continues until the in
point, when the unit drops into record
(
RECORD lights) until the out point, when the
DM-4800 punches out. Repeat until you’re
happy with the take.
3 To review the punch recording, press the
IN/
OUT key so that the indicator lights steadily.
• Press
CLEAR from rehearsal mode to return
to normal operation and clear the punch
points.
• Press
CLEAR from punch or review mode to
clear the mode and the punch points.
When punch operations are taking place, the punch-
in and punch-out points may be viewed and edited in
location memories
4 and 5 respectively. When the
CLEAR key is pressed to finish punch operations, the
original location memories (if any) are restored.
ALL INPUT and AUTO MON
The F5 acts as an ALL INPUT and F6 as an AUTO
MON key for DTRS devices controlled through the
P2 protocol. A popup appears (if the remote device
supports this function) to show the function is
enabled.
Devices controlled using the P2 protocol (including
DTRS units controlled over P2) can accept these
commands, but some cannot, depending on the man-
ufacturer’s implementation of the protocol.
