The Monitoring Panel
The Monitoring panel shows all of the audio meters corresponding to the tracks in the Timeline,
as well as the Master Output meter, Control Room meters, and a video viewer.
The Monitoring panel
At left, a row of audio meters corresponds to the channel strips of the Mixer, one meter for
every audio track in the Timeline. To the right of these, all buses appear, showing you meters
for the Mains and Subs (submixes) you’re using to mix down your show. Farther to the right of
these, a set of Control Room meters show you the monitored output and loudness meters for a
precise analysis of your mix’s perceived loudness.
Finally, a small viewer to the right of the Monitoring panel shows the frame of video at the
position of the playhead. This viewer can be undocked via a button at the lower right-
hand corner.
Floating Timecode Window
A timecode window is available from the Workspace menu on every page, including the
Fairlight page. Choosing this option displays a floating timecode window that shows the
timecode of the Viewer or Timeline that currently has focus. This window is resizable so you
canmake the timecode larger or smaller.
A new floating timecode window is available
The Deliver Page
Once you’ve finished grading your project, you need to either render it, or output it to tape to
deliver it to your client. This is where the Deliver page comes in. The Deliver page can be used
both to output digital deliverables, or to output tape, depending on which mode you enable.
Either way, the Deliver page is divided into five areas of functionality, each of which lets you set
up a different part of a render or output to tape.
The Deliver page is set up to let you queue a series of individual jobs, each of which can have
different settings, or be set up to render different parts of the Timeline. In this way, you can
output multiple deliverables, or re-render multiple areas of a timeline, as your needs require.
