Chapter 4 Using the Log and Transfer Window 85
Incrementing Logging Fields
Most of the logging fields have an Increment button you can click to increase the value
of the last character of the clip name by one, according to the following rules:
ÂAny numbers at the end of a field are incremented by one.
ÂAny single letters at the end of a field are incremented alphabetically by one from
A to Z.
ÂAny single letters preceded by numbers are incremented alphabetically from A to Z.
After Z, the number increases by one and the letter starts over at A, and then the
cycle repeats.
ÂA number is appended to any fields ending with multiple letters, and is incremented
by one. For example, ABC is followed by ABC1, then ABC2, and so on.

formats, you cannot adjust audio settings.
