Encore Two User Manual - AMS Neve

Encore Two User Manual Issue 1Virgin TerritoryThis is an expression used to describe parts of a Mix/Pass (or a series of Mix/Passes) for which there is noreturn value for a control (i.e. the value it snaps back to when timecode stops).The automation engine takes an Initial Snapshot of all controls that can be automated. The ISS value foreach control is marked to indicate whether TO END has been used on each control.If To End has not been used, then the control has Virgin Territory after the last recorded control move.If To End has been used while the control was recording automation (i.e. the control was in 'hardrecord'), then the control has no Virgin Territory.The last recorded move is used as the return value, so that when further automation is recorded thecontrol will snap back to the return value when timecode stops.WavTrakThis is the wave-form information of audio that can be seen on systems with a TFT meter bridge.Word ClockThis synchronisation signal is used by digital audio equipment.Word clock ensures that the digital audio itself is synchronised so that artifacts such as distortion,crackle, and dropouts do not occur.For instance, when a console records to a digital multi-track tape machine then both must besynchronised to send and receive each digital sample of audio simultaneously.If they were not synchronised (out of phase) then the tape machine would record the samples incorrectly,so that the recording would not match the output from the console.The rate at which word clock is running sets the sample rate (e.g. 44.1kHz) for the devices reading theword clock.This should not be confused with timecode (or timeline) which is used to keep devices lined up at thesame time position.The Word Clock rate and Sync Source are selected in the Sync Select page of Preferences.- 16 -
