Play/Jog: Use this key to start playback or engage the jog wheel for manual jog control.
By default, the first press of the Play/Jog key engages the jog wheel. The second
press latches the key in Play mode and starts playback. If the Play/Jog key is latched,
unlatching the key re-engages the jog wheel. Once the key has been latched, it toggles
between Play and Jog. To disable the jog wheel, press the Stop key. Press and hold
Play/Jog to show the associated soft menu options in the adjacent picture keys on the
left side of the jog wheel.
Play/Jog soft menu keys with Momentary-press on Play/Jog key:
Loop Jog, Rescale Jogger, Jog DIM, Gear, Width, and Follow Zoom.
Loop Jog: This key toggles Loop Jog on and off. When Loop Jog is on, the transport
plays a small length of audio (between 5ms and 2000ms), repeatedly, at play speed.
The loop moves as you jog the transport forward or backward. This is a great tool
for editing, because it maintains the correct pitch of the audio, allowing you to hear
clicks, pops, sibilants in the middle of words, and so on. Some of the other soft keys
in this menu control additional Loop Jog parameters.
Rescale Jogger: Use this key to change the gear ratio based on the current zoom
level so that three revolutions a second of the jog wheel reaches normal play speed.
Jog DIM: Toggles Jog Dim on and off. When on, it causes the monitoring level to
automatically dim during Loop Jog to the user-defined value set in the Monitor mode
Dim level.
Gear: This changes the “gear ratio” when jogging between 1 and 20. In other words,
it determines how quickly the transport moves in response to turning the jog wheel.
You can change the Gear ratio by pressing the Gear key while turning the jog wheel.
The lower the Gear number, the slower the transport will go; the higher the Gear
number, the faster the transport will go.
Width: Sets the width for the Loop Jog in milliseconds between 5ms and 2000ms.
This is the amount of audio that is repeated in each loop. You can set this amount
by holding the Width key and turning the jog wheel.
Follow Zoom: This toggles Follow Zoom on or off. When on, the gear ratio of the
jog wheel is affected by the Zoom setting. The default setting for this control is
toggled on.
Record: Latch this key along with the Play key in the standard Transport keys to begin
recording to the armed track or tracks. Press the Stop key to stop recording. To arm a
