[. . . ] Other Location Functions The OUT and TO locate registers are set in the same way. You can also press SHIFT + LOCATE to store points in the next available locate memory point in the LOCATE menu. The locate points will receive a generic name like "Mark_001". You can give them more descriptive names like "NorikzSolo", or whatever you want. To name a locate point, press LOCATE to get into the LOCATE menu, highlight the locate point you want to name and press SHIFT and MENU/TITLE. See Section V, "Assigning Names" on p23 for complete naming capabilities and instructions. As you play through the song, you may notice that the home screen will show you some location information. The upper left area will flash messages confirming a location point has been stored. The section to the right will display the last locate point that was passed. Confirmation Messages Last Locate Point Passed MORE LOCATE RESOLUTION The normal resolution of the locate points would be to the frame. This would typically yield a 1/30th of a second accuracy. If you want more resolution, you can adjust to sub-frame accuracy using 10 sub frames to a frame. This yields a 1/300th of a second accuracy. Time locations can be fine adjusted to sub frame accuracy. Scroll to the subframe column, and adjust with the JOG/DATA wheel. The time display shows hours, minutes, seconds, frames, and sub-frames. One of these time denominations will be underlined; the one that is underlined can be adjusted by the JOG/DATA wheel. To move the cursor around, use the arrow keys. This gives you editing resolution accurate to the sub-frame. The other way to get to sub-frame accurate locate points is to use the JOG/DATA capabilities mentioned earlier in this section. You can enter the JOG/DATA mode by pressing STOP+PLAY together, then pressing the RIGHT CURSOR key until you are zoomed in at 32x aspect ratio. That scrubs at the sub-frame level. TASCAM 788 Operational Tutorial · 8/2000 Edition Recording & Editing Functions 16 Recording & Editing Functions PUNCH IN/OUT & AUTO PUNCH One-Button Punch Punching in and out of record on the fly is commonly done to allow the performers the chance to fix just a small part of their performance. The single button punch feature makes this function easy to use. If you are playing, you can just press REC to go into record; pressing PLAY when recording punches out of record. Footswitch (TASCAM RC-30P) There is a 1/4" port on the back labeled REMOTE that can accept a TASCAM RC-30P for using a footswitch for punch in/out. Using your feet to engage and disengage record keeps your hands on your instrument, making punches on complex parts much easier and more reliable. [. . . ] Then, record it back on the 788 at normal speed so you have that wild sound you can use in your project!Whether you're making your own video, making wild sounds for your drum loops or simply trying to create a unique sound effect, these effects can be the highlight of your project! Section VIII TIPS AND TRICKS Guitar Processing - "0 Hz Flanging" The multi-effect processing chain used for guitar effects has a few set-ups that use a flanger. If you set the flanging RATE to 0 Hz, you can use the DEPTH control to create a phase angle type of sound. The more you increase the DEPTH, the more the phased sound increases. [. . . ]
