INTRODUCTION
UNDO
The UNDO key offers twenty levels of undo and redo. If you make a mistake and do something
you’re not happy with, press UNDO and the original data will be restored. If you then find that you
preferred the mistake, press REDO (SHIFT+UNDO).
You may undo/redo the last twenty things you did by repeatedly pressing UNDO or REDO
(SHIFT+UNDO). This allows you to try a few edits out in succession and then, if you don’t like the
results, restore the original version.
NOTE 1: The UNDO function only refers to recording and editing. You cannot undo anything
else. For example, if you load a project and change your mind, you cannot undo that. If you
select some tracks for edit when you really meant to select them for record, you cannot undo
that.
NOTE 2: IT IS NOT POSSIBLE TO USE UNDO IF YOU DELETE A FILE (I.E. A PROJECT)
BY MISTAKE. PLEASE TAKE CARE WHEN DELETING FILES.
SHIFT
The amber SHIFT key gives access to sub-functions on certain keys. Most keys’ sub-functions
relate to the key itself (for example, many keys have sub-functions to SET parameters associated
with the main function of the key).
When using certain sub-functions such as VGA (SHIFT+SETUP), XFADE (SHIFT+EDITQ), the
keys’ LEDs flash indicating you are the key’s ‘alternative’ function.
SET FUNCTIONS
Some keys’ SHIFT function is SET, allowing you to set up certain parameters relevant to the key
(for example, SHIFT+PREROLL allows you to set the preroll time). When using SET pages, the
LED will not flash but will be lit according to whether that key is switched ON or OFF (for example,
when setting the PREROLL time, the LED will indicate whether the PREROLL function is turned
on or off.
NOTE: Not all keys’ SET functions are operational. Some of the SET functions are reserved
for future enhancements via software.
JOG WHEEL
The jog wheel is normally used to ‘scrub’ audio when finding edit points. It is possible to jog all
tracks simultaneously. You may also use the jog wheel to ‘spool’ through a project and the jog
wheel acts as a speed control for forwards or backwards playback.
The function of the jog wheel is selected by pressing the JOG key to toggle the function. The
current function is indicated by the JOG/SHUTTLE LEDs located next to the key. When both LEDs
are lit, this selects a special ‘JOG VIEW’ mode which allows you to jog through the project but
without audio.
NAMING FILES
Although the RE32 has an auto-naming function for naming recordings, projects, etc., sometimes
it is necessary to name files yourself. Typically, you want to name projects, libraries and clips most
of the time and you may wish to name edits prior to copying them into the clipboard.
Naming is usually done from a PS/2 ASCII keyboard connected to the RE32. The computer keyboard
is connected to the KEYBOARD input on the rear of the RE32.
When the cursor is placed on a filename and a key is pressed on the PS/2 keyboard, the selected
file will be highlighted thus ready for editing:
The first character of the name will be highlighted and you may type in a name of up to ten
characters.
