5.6.1.3 Dump
The Dump function prevents a new pass from being written if flaws are
detected while a new Mix Pass is being created. This is useful if a mistake is
made during a Record pass and the resultant pass would not be worth keeping.
The Dump button is located next to the Undo / Redo buttons in the ACU
window.
Dumping a Mix Pass If Dump is engaged when timecode is stopped, the new mix pass will not
be written. To prevent a new Mix Pass from being written, click the Dump
button before playback of timecode stops.
Note Dump may be engaged and disengaged at any time while timecode is being
played back. This allows the user to kill a pass and then change his or her
mind before the timecode is stopped. As long as timecode hasn’t stopped, Kill
pass may be toggled on an off at will. The Kill Pass state that exists when
timecode is stopped will dictate the fate of the Record Mix Pass
Dump will always disengage at the end of a Mix Pass.
Conditions Dump functions only when Record passes are in progress.

Note The Mix Options window is opened by clicking the ‘Options…’ button in

responding page.
