User Manual

Setup mode keys for enhanced features only available in the Fairlight Audio Editor:
 Video Online/Offline: When toggled On (Online) the playhead is sync locked to the
current video timecode in the Timeline. When toggled off (Offline), the playhead
moves freely, and can be used to go to another area of the Timeline or Media Pool
to add or edit a clip. Toggling this key back On (Online), returns the playhead to the
exact position it was prior to going offline. This is a great way to temporarily move the
transport offline so that you can go to a clip in another part of the Timeline, use the
playhead as a sync point to copy or cut the clip, then toggle the Video back Online to
jump the playhead and copied clip to the previous timeline location.
 Display Setup: This menu key reveals Display Setup Source keys to accommodate all
of the Fairlight LCD screens on a console. Each Source key toggles between DATA,
HDMI and SDI as needed.
 Fader Spill: Temporarily spilling the member tracks of a master bus or VCA group to
nearby faders is a fast way to finesse member track levels while mixing. Use this menu
key to reveal two menu Spill option keys that determine the type of fader channel and
direction in which member tracks are temporarily mapped to the adjoining faders on
the Fairlight Channel Fader panel.
–
Spill Left/Spill Right: This menu options key toggles between Spill: Left and Spill:
Right, which in turn dictates whether the member tracks of a bus are assigned to
neighboring faders to the left or right of a bus when Spill is engaged in the Channel
Fader panel.
–
Spill Any/Spill Tracks: When in the default (unlatched) state, the Spill: Any menu
option allows member tracks of a bus to be spilled to the nearest faders to the left or
right, including faders assigned to Master buses and VCA groups. When latched to
the Spill: Tracks option, member tracks of a bus spill either left or right, starting with
the nearest track fader in the designated direction. This option is useful if you need
to maintain fader control of your buses while you spill their constituent tracks to the
nearest track faders.
NOTE: Fader spill is engaged on the Channel Fader panel with a momentary-
press on the Bank/Flip key, then latching the call button on a bus channel in
the current fader bank. For more detailed instructions on using Fader Spill and
creating custom Fader Banks, see Chapter 163, “Fairlight Consoles.”
 DL Off: This is the Decklink Offset key that lets you offset the Decklink Output so the
picture and audio are in sync. Momentary press the DL Offset key and turn the jog
wheel to increase or decrease the frame offset between 0 and 7 frames. This feature is
also available in the Fairlight, Video I/O Offset section of the the DaVinci Resolve User
Preferences.
 ADV In Jog: Latch this key to apply the Decklink Output offset while playback is in Jog
or Shuttle mode. This feature is also available as a checkbox in the Fairlight section of
the DaVinci Resolve User Preferences.
