Copying Grades Using the
Advanced Control Panel
There are a number of methods of copying grades that are exclusive to the Advanced
control panel.
Copy Forward Keys
The simplest way of copying grades using the control panel is to use the comma and colon
keys on the keypad of the Transport panel to copy grades from one or two clips behind the
currently selected clip. This is a great way to copy grades in scenes with a shot-reverse-shot
structure, where you’re cutting between two angles of coverage, each of which uses the
same grade.
To copy a grade from one clip back: Press Comma (,).
To copy a grade from two clips back: Press Colon (:).
Scroll
Scroll mode lets you quickly preview the effects of many different grades applied to clips in the
Timeline on the currently selected clip, with the option to either accept or reject the previewed
grade to which you’ve “scrolled.” This can be useful for checking to see if any of the previous
grades you’ve created in a scene will work for the currently selected clip.
To use Scroll mode:
1 Move the playhead to the clip to which you potentially want to copy a new grade. You
can use the PREV SCENE and NEXT SCENE buttons to move quickly.
2 Do one of the following to enter Scroll mode:
Press SCROLL on the Transport panel.
Press MODES, above the fourth trackball on the Center panel, then press the
SCROLL MODE soft key.
3 Now, do one of the following to preview different grades from other clips:
Press the PREVIOUS SCENE and NEXT SCENE soft keys to move from clip to clip in
the Timeline, previewing each grade to the current clip.
Turn the SCROLL SCENES knob to scroll smoothly along multiple clips in the Timeline.
Turn the SCROLL FRAMES knob to scroll along different frames of any clip,
previewing the effects of keyframed grades at different points in time.
Press the TOGGLE DECK KEYS soft key to use the transport controls on the
Transport panel to play through the Timeline, previewing grades as you go.
Press a number on the keypad of the Transport panel, and then the SCENE NUMBER
soft key, to jump to a clip and preview its grade.
As you scroll from clip to clip, a red outline indicates the clip with the grade
being previewed, and an orange outline indicates the current clip to which you’re
previewing each scrolled grade.
