automationtrim lokTrim Lok (only available in ‘Motors Off’ mode — see below) defeats the auto nulling feature provided for the standard Trimfunction, and ‘locks’ the null point to the position that the fader was in when Trim was first enabled in the current Mix Pass.This enables a defined trim offset to be repeatedly punched in and out throughout subsequent Mix Passes.Select this function by pressing the trIM lOK button in the ‘AUTOMATION’ group. When trIM lOK is deselected,any stored nulled points are cleared. autotakeover (see below) can be used when Trim Lok is active. However Snapand Motors Off are mutually exclusive.As an example of Trim Lok, how about bringing up the level of some of guitar licks in a track. If Trim is used in with Snapmode, the fader can be raised and let go repeatedly, returning to the previous level. However, it is difficult to get an identicalincrease in level each time, when you do this manually. If you select trIM lOK, the reference value will be set, and thefader will be moved to the correct raised level. Every time you press the fader status button, the fader will jump to thatlevel and, when pressed again, it will return to the reference value. Note that there will be no glide times but the maximumvalue will be identical each time.Motors OffThis mode suspends the motorised playback of mix data via the moving faders. In ‘Motors Off’ — select the MOtOrsOFF button in the ‘AUTOMATION’ group — the faders emulate a VCA automation system. MOtOrs OFFautomatically activates the Fader Links suspdall function (see later) and can only be selected if the grouping mode is setto VCA in ssl/Misc/setup.Once MOtOrs OFF has been enabled, the channel levels are controlled from the mix data not the position of the fader.Selecting an Absolute update writes the current physical level of the fader to mix. In Trim mode entering write does notchange the stored mix level as the current fader position is used as the Trim null point. Trim with all the faders set to 0dBvia the C0dB key in the Misc Menu, is a very typical method for fine tuning a mix and is used by many engineers used to theoriginal E Series consoles and non-Ultimation G Series consoles.De-selecting MOtOrs OFF repositions all the faders at their underlying channel levels regardless of the current stateof the mix system. When the mix system is idle, ie. when MIx Running or Review is not displayed, touching a fader forcesthe channel level to match the physical fader level.5-18 <strong>Duality</strong> se V3 Operator’s <strong>Manual</strong>
