4 - Operation : Writing Switch Events Auto Revert Choices: With AUTO REVERT - WRITE/TRIM enabled, the automation system stops recording switch events automatically on a per control basis, without any need to end writing manually. In this case, keys stop recording switch events at different times, depending on when they were last pressed and depending on the value set in CONTROL SENSE TIME OUT. In the case of control surface keys, writing ends when the CONTROL SENSE TIME OUT has expired without a key press. CONTROL SENSE TIME OUT allows the con- trol surface keys to respond as if they are touch-sensitive, even though they are not. Writing switch events over a Static switch position simply adds the new switch events. When writing new switch events over previous ones, the TASCAM DM automation system provides you with a high degree of flexibility over when writing will end. See the diagram below to understand this behavior: 1 sec 2 sec Switch ON Existing Switch Events 3 sec 4 sec 5 sec 6 sec 7 sec Switch ON 8 sec Switch ON Switch OFF Switch OFF Switch OFF New Switch Events 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec 4 sec 5 sec 6 sec Switch ON 7 sec 8 sec Switch OFF Control Sense Timeout 1 sec 2 sec Switch ON Resulting Switch Events 3 sec 4 sec 5 sec 6 sec 7 sec 8 sec Switch ON Switch OFF Control Sense Timeout Switch OFF Figure 21: Writing new switch events over previous switch events with Auto Revert enabled 24 TASCAM DM Automation Guide
