Page 140 Version 2.00 - March, 1996
NUDGE
This allows you to use the DATA ENTRY +/- keys to slip and nudge edits or audio into
position. Pressing NUDGE gives this screen:
This is a graphic representation of what is happening when you nudge. This page allows
you to nudge the NOW time into position prior to marking an IN, SYNC or OUT time. For
example, if you cannot set an edit precisely using the JOG wheel, you can use this page
to nudge the NOW time into position using the DATA ENTRY +/- keys which will nudge the
NOW time, frame by frame, until it is at exactly the right position. Typically, you would use
this by roughly jogging over an edit point using the JOG wheel, pressing NUDGE and use
the + or - keys to nudge backwards or forwards in increments of frames, maybe use PLAY
TO, OVER and/or FROM to audition the point and then mark an IN, SYNC or OUT point
as appropriate.
You can also use the NUMERIC KEYPAD’s -/< or +/> keys to nudge in increments of sub-
frames (however, please see below - NUDGE SET - as you can set the increments by
which the NOW time will be nudged).
You may also use NUDGE with SELECT CUE to set the SYNC point at which you mark
the cue. Line up the cue you are interested in on the NOW time and press NUDGE. Now
use the +/- keys to nudge the NOW time and, when you’re happy with the position, press
SELECT CUE. The cue will be selected and the SYNC point will be marked on the NOW
time you have just set.
NUDGING AUDIO
It is also possible to physically nudge and slip audio into position using the NUDGE
function. Pressing F5/F6 gives this screen:
To nudge audio (that is, to physically slip it in time), you must first select and IN and OUT
region. This may be done before or after entering NUDGE AUDIO. Assuming the
appropriate tracks are selected for EDIT, this can be done in a number of ways...
To select a single cue for nudging, line the cue you wish to nudge onto the NOW time and
press SELECT CUE. The cue will be highlighted green on the external monitor. For stereo
cues, select the tracks for edit as necessary.
To select a specific IN and OUT region to nudge, mark the IN and OUT points where
necessary. The edit region will be highlighted green on the selected track. You may also
select several tracks.
To select everything from the NOW time to the end of the track to nudge, press and hold
the IN key and press OUT. Everything from the IN time to the end of the track will be
selected and highlighted green on the external monitor. You may do this across several
tracks.
To select everything from the NOW time to the start of the track to nudge, press and hold
the OUT key and press the IN key. Everything from the NOW time back to the start of the
track will be selected and highlighted green on the external monitor. You may do this
across several tracks.
