Timecode Displays
The timecode readout on the MIX-DESK display always shows the current Desk time.
If a Sony 9-pin or DCTM machine is in use, a green box, below the Vari: box, will show
the current machine position. If this box turns red, the wrong timecode standard has
been selected in the FILE/SETUP/Desk Setup/Timecode menu (see Page 3-3 and
Section 9).
The large LED display on the front panel may be used to display Desk time or,
alternatively, can be set to display Events/Cues (see Section 4), the date or time of day.
The choice is made in the FILE/SETUP/Desk Config/Front Panel menu (see Section
9).
Individual numbers in the Desk timecode readout can be dragged up or down to
move the system to a new position. Alternatively, stab to produce the timecode
calculator (see Section 1) and enter a new timecode.
Copying Timecodes
Timecodes can be copied from the Desk readout to other timecode boxes. By simply
stabbing on the current Desk time and then on the Cycle Start or End boxes, you can
enter Desk times as cycle times. Note that the timecode calculator appears when you
do this, should you wish to enter a time other than the Desk time. If you are simply
transferring the existing Desk time to a Cycle box, ignore the timecode calculator – it
will clear as soon as you stab on the Cycle box.
