Sorting/recording events

Events are recorded when sorting is done. Sorting is done when you leave

the Time Code Events display or you end the time code Learn Mode. You

can also force sorting without leaving the Time Code Events display.

A reason for sorting before leaving the Time Code Events display arises

when you are playing the program you are currently editing. If the program

has not yet come to the place where you made the edits, those edits will

be effective on that pass. If, however, the program has already passed the

place where you made the edits, those edits will not be effective until the

next pass of the program. In some cases, you may want to reset the event

list pointer, which is explained below.

To sort, note if your softkeys show Sort at softkey [S8]. If not, press [S7],

More Softkeys, one or two times until that softkey appears. Then press

[S8], Sort.

Editing time code programs

Edit time code programs in the Time Code Events display. While editing a

time code program, you can run it simultaneously because the editing

procedure is buffered in memory. Your edits, however, may not be

effective immediately upon leaving the Time Code Events display

because the program is controlled by the events list pointer. If that pointer

has already passed an event you edited, the edits don’t take effect until

the event list pointer is reset to the beginning of the program.

Re-setting the event list pointer

The event list pointer jumps through time code events regardless of what

the time code signal is doing. For example, if the program’s next event is

100 frames away, the event list pointer resets immediately to that frame

while a steady time code signal moves to it uniformly, frame by frame.

You can interrupt the program by interrupting the time code signal that

drives it. If you are using the console's internal clock, you only need to

disable that. Likewise, if you are driving the program with an external time

code clock, you need only disable the external clock. If using both clocks,

you need to interrupt both the internal and the external time code signals

to interrupt the program.

Please note that when you disable an external clock while relying on the

internal clock for backup, the resynchronization of the clocks cannot occur

in less than five seconds after the external signal is restored. Any events

scheduled during that resynchronization period will be missed on that

pass but will be picked up on the next pass of the program.

If you have been editing the program, the events list pointer may need to

be reset. Without leaving the Time Code Event Display and without

disabling the clock, you can force the event pointer to reset with the Learn

Mode softkey. This works because when you leave Learn Mode by

pressing softkey [S6] a second time, you force a resorting of time code

events in the program and a reset of the event pointer. There is no need

to actually use Learn Mode—just press the Learn Mode softkey twice in

succession to do the job.
