Transport and Navigation : Jog / Shuttle

Jog / Shuttle
Scrub Using the Middle Mouse Button
Audio can be scrubbed by holding down the middle mouse button while the cursor is in the Timescale area and
moving the cursor left to scrub in reverse or right to scrub forward. The distance moved away from the current
play cursor position will determine the relative playback speed.
When the middle mouse button is released, play-
back will stop.
Shuttle
The transport can be shuttled with audio output at up to 8 times speed.
Jog Wheel Settings
Jog Wheel Mode
Jog Wheel Mode is selected in Machines > Controllers.
Jog Wheel Settings
Jog / Scrub parameters are set in Settings > All Settings > Application > Jog / Chase.
Auto Jog on move
When checked moving the jog-wheel enters Jog mode. When Auto-Jog is enabled, all Jog Commands are pro-
cessed a slightly different way. Pyramix temporarily stops chasing and starts Jogging while sending Goto com-
mands to the External Machine. The audio is therefore perfectly scrubbed and the external machine follows the
audio as well as it possibly can. When the user stops Jogging, Pyramix automatically returns to chase mode.
Geared Jogging
When checked the jog wheel “gearing” I.e. the amount you have to turn the wheel for a given amount of cursor
movement is related to the current Zoom level.
Jog Speed ceiling
Sets the maximum jog speed from a choice of 1X, 2X, 4X or 8X play speed
Jog Sensitivity
The value typed in the box (in seconds) determines the number of seconds the transport will move per revolution
of an attached physical jog wheel.
Flywheel responsiveness and inertia
Responsive follows the actual movements as sent by the jog wheel. Smooth passes the actual movement
through a smoothing filter. So, when the slider is set to
Responsive the Smoothing Filter parameters have no
effect. For sound to picture work where tight sync to picture is required use a setting biased to
Responsive. For a
more pronounced flywheel effect choose a
Smoother setting. The Middle position is a good starting point.
Jog - sensitivity [0.33] second(s) per revolution
Sets the time moved in one revolution of the jog wheel. Type the required value in the box.
Shuttle - sensitivity [2] revolution(s) for nominal speed
Sets the fraction of a revolution or number of revolutions required to maintain nominal speed. E.g. an entry of 0.25
will require a quarter of a turn clockwise to achieve nominal speed.
Navigate - sensitivity [3] revolution(s) to traverse the timeline
Navigate is silent jog mode. Sets the number of revolutions of the jog wheel required to traverse the visible time-
line. I.e. the actual speed varies with the zoom setting.
Geared Jog mute when timeline view range is > 00:00:10:00
Audio will be muted when the TimeLine view range exceeds the value in the register.
Fine Jog sensitivity factor [ ]
Sets the fraction of the regular Jog Sensitivity Setting that will be invoked when Fine Jog is selected in the
Machines > Controllers menu.
