Chapter 11 Editing Tips & Tools

familiar with the Scrub function, you may want to try a

longer length, such as 70 or 80ms.

fig.11-04

Scrub Length

This sets the length (25ms to 100msec) of audio that is

looped when the SCRUB button is pressed.

3. After you have finished adjusting the Scrub Length,

press [PLAY (DISPLAY)] or [EXIT] to return to the

Playlist display.

General Guidelines for Using Scrub

Before using Scrub, you should do two things:

• Set the TIME/VALUE dial to adjust frame increments.

• Set the Scrub Direction using Preview To and Preview

From.

Set the TIME/VALUE Dial to Adjust Frame

Increments

1. Cursor up [ ] to access the top section of the VS-1680

display screen.

2. Press [ ] to move the cursor to the last pair of

numbers just after the small “f” in the time display.

These are Sub Frames.

fig.02-06a

There are 100 Sub Frames in each frame. With the cursor at

this position, each click of the TIME/VALUE dial advances

the play position by 11 hundredths (11/100th) of a frame.

Hold [SHIFT] and slowly turn the TIME/VALUE dial. Now

each click moves the edit line by exactly one hundredth of a

frame. One hundredth (1/100th) of a frame is equivalent to

one three thousandths (1/3,000th) of a second.

For scrubbing, start with the cursor under the Frame value.

Then later, as you need a finer editing resolution, press

[ ] to move the cursor over to Sub Frames. As you try

scrubbing, turn the TIME/VALUE slowly and smoothly for

the best results.

Setting Scrub Direction

When using the Scrub function in the VS-1680, it is possible

to scrub both forward and backward. That is, you can turn

the TIME/VALUE dial either clockwise or counter-clockwise

to find an edit point. If you are trying to find the beginning of

a note or a kick drum, you will most likely start by turning

the TIME/VALUE dial clockwise.

If you are editing dialog and need to find the end of a spoken

word, you would likely locate just past the word and scrub

backwards by turning the TIME/VALUE dial counter-

clockwise until you begin to hear the sound that signifies the

end of the word. When editing dialog, radio or TV spots, you

will probably use the counter-clockwise method of scrubbing

more frequently than when editing music tracks.

Whenever you use Scrub, program the scrub direction for

either clockwise scrubbing or counter-clockwise scrubbing.

Clockwise Scrubbing:

Press [PREVIEW TO] once before pressing [SCRUB]

Counter-clockwise Scrubbing:

Press [PREVIEW FROM] once before pressing [SCRUB]

Summary of Using Scrub

Before using Scrub, remember to do these five things:

1. Cursor up [ ] to access the top section of the VS-1680

display screen.

2. Press [ ] so the cursor (underline) is positioned under

either Frames or Sub Frames in the Time Display.

3. Press [TO] once to set the Scrub direction to Clockwise or

[FROM] for Counter-clockwise.

4. Use [ ] and [ ] to select the track which is heard

during Scrub.

5. Press [SCRUB].
