Write Mode definition
Write Mode means you simply write them again, which erases and replaces any previously written moves on that channel. Trim Mode does not erase and replace automation moves, rather it modifies the moves previously made. For example, a fader in trim will play back previously written moves, while you are allowed to shift those moves up or down. While more will be said about these modes shortly, the main point of this discussion is to say that an audio channel can be in one of four different modes: Write, Trim, Read, or Manual. Write Mode When the Edit Mode menu indicates WRITE, selecting channels puts them into Write mode. Channels in Write are “armed” and ready to write automation moves. Select Write Mode from the Edit Mode menu by typing “w”. When the Edit Mode menu indicates TRIM, selecting channels puts them into Trim mode. Channels in Trim are “armed” and ready to Trim automation moves. In Trim mode, fader moves that you have previously written will not replaced. The moves will be left intact but the overall level will be relatively “offset”. For example, say that you have made some very complicated fader moves while riding a vocal track, on a fader in Write mode. You roll back the program material to hear what you’ve done, and you like the results, but you just wish that the whole track were a bit softer. Trim mode allows you to shift up or down the level by adding or subtracting from the fader moves already entered, without having to re-write all the moves. Trim mode is also used for editing channel on/offs and other switch events. When a switch is pressed while the channel is in Trim mode, additional switch events are only added to the previous events, without replacing previously written events. Select Trim Mode from the Edit Mode menu by typing “t”. When the Edit Mode menu indicates READ, selecting channels puts them into Read mode. Channels in Read only play back previously written moves. Select Read Mode from the Edit Mode menu by typing “R”. This also de-selects all channels as if you drag down the Disable All in the Real Time Menu. For more information see page 203, Enable All/ Disable All. When the Edit Mode menu indicates MANUAL, selecting channels puts them into Manual mode. Moving the faders will change the sound of the mix, but the changes will not be written or saved. De-selected channels go into Read. At the moment they are de-selected, they will snap to their last automated level, and then play back any previously written fader moves. To de-select ...
