Real Time Mix Editing5.3 Auto ManualThis mode automatically puts a channel into manual mode when a faderis moved. This can be useful for experimenting with new mix moveswithout erasing previous ones. Remember, manual mode does not writemix moves, so these experiments will not be written to the automationsoftware. Also, when a channel is switched to manual mode, all theparameters of that channel will stop reading mix moves. So if youexperiment with fader moves on a channel that has panning moveswritten, the panning moves will stop playing back.· Channels will already be in read mode since they will be reading mixmoves from the automation software.1. Select AUTO MANUAL in the Fader Sense Modesection of the Automation Setup screen on the TM-D4000.2. Play the recording a comfortable amount of timebefore the place you wish to experiment with mixmoves. The moving faders of the TM-D4000 will befollowing the mix moves previously written.3. Begin moving the desired fader(s) when you wishto begin experimenting with mix moves. Thechannel will automatically switch to manual mode.4. When the end of the experiment is reached,simply stop the recording or switch back to read mode using the READand ALL keys for all channels or the READ and SEL keys for individualchannels.· In this mode Auto Read will not switch all channels to Read Modewhen the recording is stopped, allowing further experimentation when therecording is started again. It is necessary to manually switch back toRead Mode when desired.NOTE: Since Auto Write and Auto Manual will cause a channel to go intoWrite or Manual mode when a fader is moved, turn these functions offbefore the final mixdown. If a fader is accidentally moved with one ofthese functions on, that channel will stop playing back mix moves, and inthe case of Auto Write, that fader will begin erasing mix moves.18
