Also, the total length of the Project from Start to End (if Region is set to ALL) or the length between In

and Out points (if Region is set to IN<>OUT) should not exceed 74 minutes (or 80 minutes for an

extended CD). If it does, you should EDIT out (CUT) the extra songs that you do not want to write to

the CD. If there is silence between songs, it will also be written to CD and count towards the total

size.

The main purpose of Disk-at-Once versus Track-at-Once is to be able to write a CD with continuous

music containing Track Indexes (the Track-at-Once modes inserts a 2 second silence between each

Track).

When you set up your tracks for Disk at Once recording, make sure they are all in chronological

order - If they are not then you will get a message "the track is less than 4 seconds long" (well at

least I did) and the session will fail.

Where is 0dB on the fader?

I only ask because I can see some markings on the fader a quarter from the top and wonder if this is

0db on all Deeps.

Find 0dB via mixer>channel and select the channel you want to set (even the master fader is

selectable). You can read the screen, the markings are there to give you an idea but this is not as

precise as on the screen. It also allows to enter it using Q6, Data +/- or the numeric keypad (the

cursor defaults to the fader value).

Deleting snapshots, locators, scenes

I inadvertently created a snapshot when I wanted to save a scene and then tried to delete the saved

EQ snapshot but found no way to do it. Do I have a mental block or is there no way to delete them

once created?

Simply store a Memory with a blank name on top of the one that you want to clear.

Actually, all 100 locate memories are always active, they just all have blank names and a "zero"

location. Or - Overwrite it with either the previous or subsequent scene...so it would become

"invisible". In other words, recall the previous scene, and store it on the one you want to get rid of's

location. Or, make adjustments to the scene and re-store it as is. Same thing for the Locator

Memories and Scenes.

Channel Structure Info

The structure of a channel is:

Source -> Phase Invert -> Attenuation ->(1) EQ -> DYN -> (2) CH ON -> Fader -> (3) Pan -> L/R-

GROUP Assign

The Meter setting in CHANNEL page acts as follows:

* PRE-EQ: the meter shows the level of signal at the input of the channel, before the fader and

before the EQ/DYN section. (1)

1 2 ... 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22
