Slip Track State Display

In the Slip Track state, the display will show the current time position in the top line of the display (the same as in the Normal state), while the bottom line of the display is used to show the contents of the slip register for the selected track. If more than one track is selected, all of their registers are active, but only the last selected track indexes slip register will be shown.

SlipX HH:MM:SS:FF.xx	Bottom: (X is the number of the currently selected
	track index, Time code display is the slip register
	for the selected track index)

To increment or decrement the slip register amount for the selected track index, use the Up/Down arrow keys or the Wheel. To clear a slip register, set the slip amount to zero (0), or hold the clear key while also pressing the appropriate track SEL key. To directly enter a slip time into a slip register, use the keypad while in the Normal state to enter the desired slip time amount, then press STO followed by pressing the appropriate track SEL key.

Load Track State Display

In the Load Track state, the display is used to show the directory of all Edit Decision Lists or EDLs (Projects, Sessions, and Compositions) on all mounted drives. Use the wheel or the Up/Down arrow keys to scroll through the list of projects. Press STO to automatically load the first eight tracks of the Project into the eight MMR track indexes.

Pressing the Load Track key again shows the next level of the EDL hierarchy for the chosen project (usually the Track name) and allows for scrolling through the list of tracks in the Project, and loading any track into the selected track index.

If a track from the list of available tracks has already been loaded into an MMR track index, the display will ask if you wish to move that track into the currently selected Track index. If accepted, this action will remove the track from its previous Track index location, thus leaving it blank.
