Bar Position displayed as SMPTE value elds: These elds become available if you select the
Enable Separate SMPTE View Oset checkbox. Choose Bar Position 1 1 1 1 displayed as SMPTE
00:00:00:00 (preset). If necessary, you can set other view oset values here.
The Tempo List always shows the real SMPTE time, never the SMPTE View Oset. The SMPTE
View Oset is used in all other windows (including the control bar).
Tip: It’s common practice in many video (and audio) post-production houses to set a one-hour
SMPTE oset (01:00:00:00). This avoids a problem commonly referred to as midnight, where a
pre-roll passes through SMPTE time 00:00:00:00, which causes issues with some tape machines
(such as the ADAT).
