SINGLE-MACHINE EDITING

PASTING TO OUT AND SYNC REFERENCES

It is also possible to paste material in a variety of different ways. The default is to paste the IN point

of the source material at the current NOW time. For example:

NOW

BEFORE PASTE

AFTER PASTE

However, you may paste in material referenced to the source material’s OUT point simply by

pressing the OUT key prior to pasting. This will place the source material’s OUT point on the NOW

time pasting over preceding material. For example:

NOW

BEFORE PASTE

AFTER PASTE + OUT

Known as ‘back-timing’, this is useful where you want a cue to end at a specific point but its start

point is not so important. For example, you may want a piece of music to end at a certain point

(maybe at the end of a scene). Locate to the end of the scene and jog over the exact point you

want and then press PASTE, OUT, EXECUTE (to paste from default clipboard 0) or PASTE, OUT,

1-9, EXECUTE (to paste from the edit clipboard)

. As you press the OUT key, so you will see the

LCD’s ‘REFERENCED TO’ field change to SOURCE OUT. If you wish, you may specifically move

the cursor to this field and change it using the DATA ENTRY +/- keys.

It is also possible to paste material referenced to the source material’s SYNC point. Assuming you

marked a SYNC point in the source material, press PASTE, SYNC, EXECUTE. The following will

occur:

NOW

BEFORE PASTE

AFTER PASTE + SYNC

You may also paste and sync an edit from the clipboard - i.e. PASTE, SYNC, 8, EXECUTE to

paste the sync point of clipboard 8 to the current NOW time .

This is similar to back-timing except that you can set the exact position you want synced, not just

the end. You may use this, for example, to sync up a music crescendo with a dramatic point in the

visuals or you may use this to back time the end of some music or dialogue or a sound effect

(some passing traffic, perhaps) so that the very end of the cue maybe trails over into the next

scene. Whatever. There are many uses for this which you will no doubt discover for yourself.

NOTE: If you try to paste referenced to a SYNC mark and there isn’t one, it will paste referenced

to the source material’s IN point

1 In fact, the actual order in which you press the keys is not that important. For example, you may

press PASTE, 8, OUT, EXECUTE to paste the out time of clipboard 8 the current NOW time or you

may press PASTE, OUT, 8, EXECUTE to achieve the same effect. Similarly, the order you press

the clipboard and SYNC keys is not important.
