Post Pass Processing By definition, Extend Back To: transitions are performed as a post pass
process. This also means it is possible to overwrite mix data in locations that
have not been heard. Care is suggested while using Extend Back To: func-
tions.
Important Note Extend Back To: Punch In and Begin are destructive functions in the
regard that they will overwrite existing mix data back to their respective
Extend Back To: locations. Even though previous Mix Passes are retained,
for efficient operation care should be taken when using these functions.
Setting a Fixed Begin Time Fixed Begin Times are set using the methods employed to setting Fixed End
Times. Refer to ‘Setting a Fixed End Time’ in chapter 5.10.1 above.
Hot Keys Hot Keys are provided to aid in the entry of fixed Begin timecode locations.
A complete description of Hot Key functions is provided in chapter 5.24.
<Option> • <EndofPassClears>:TheEndofPassoptions(refertochapter 5.22.6)
determine the behavior of specific functions when a mix pass is terminated
by stopping timecode. The behaviors that take place are determined in the
End of Pass Options page. Check boxes allow the selection of the follow-
ing options:
- With <Extend Back To Begin> checked, the Extend Back To: Begin
function is disabled after the end of every Mix Pass. This ensures that
Extend Back To: Begin is only used for one pass without being reset.
- With <Extend Back To PUNCH-IN> checked, the Extend Back To:
Punch In function is disabled after the end of every Mix Pass. This
ensures that Extend Back To: Begin is only used for one pass without
being reset.

in the Master Panel Options page (refer to chapter 5.22.5), Write To:
Punch Out is automatically selected when Extend Back To: Punch In
is selected. This is convenient since these functions are often used together,
especially when Auditioning a level and then using that level between
punch in and punch out locations.
