Project Trash Manager
Whenever a “retake” is performed, or
Delete
is chosen
in the File Edit screen, the HD-P2 moves the audio
file to the Project’s Trash folder. The Trash Manager
screen is used to move a file back into the project, or
to delete the file(s) permanently.
In Figure 17 there is only one file in the trash, which
you can select to delete, or to move back into the
project. Selecting the
Delete All Files
menu option will
permanently delete all files from the trash.
For information regarding how much space is being
used by all files, in all projects, visit the Media
Cleanup menu, located in the Media Management area
Figure 17 - Project Trash Screen
of the System Menu.
Deleting files from one project’s trash does not affect
files in other projects.
Project Files Menu
This menu shows a list of all active files in the project.
Highlight a file and press
SELECT
to enter the File Edit
screen.
The File Edit screen is the only screen that disables the
transport keys from normal operation. While in this
screen you use the
REW/FFWD/STOP/PLAY
keys to audition
the current file. The timeline shows where you are in
the file. The top left and right time fields indicate the
current In and Out points of the file. When you first
visit this screen they are set to the start and end loca-
tion of the file.
