might use one of these decks, for instance, to play a cart from the audio clipboard - a playback activity

that has nothing to do with the log. These secondary decks are also used for playback using hot

buttons and may be used as a place to audition audio off-air.

As a default, decks 2, 3 and 4 do not interact with the log - the audio source for each is the audio

clipboard. When the deck playback source is the audio clipboard, the [Play] button is armed only if

there are carts in the clipboard. These decks can be used to play the Next-To-Play log item by setting

the deck source to the log.

Playback Decks 2, 3 & 4 Source Selection

The example deck display shows the appearance of the decks when the playback deck source is set to

the log (Deck 2) and when the playback source is set to the audio clipboard (Deck 3). The deck source

button is a toggle, meaning as you click on it, the deck's source is set to the opposite of the current

deck source setting.

Setting a Deck 2, 3 or 4 playback source to the log is most often used when you are running a live air

shift and want to cross-fade from one audio item to the next when both items are on the log.

When the deck playback source is set to the log and the [Play] button is

pressed, the log item marked as Next-To-Play is started on the selected

playback deck.

At the same time, the [Auto] button is turned off (if it was on) to provide

full control over when the next audio item on the log will be started.

To resume normal auto-sequencing of log playback following usage of either

Deck 2, 3 or 4 to play from the log, you will need to turn the [Auto] button back

on (enable auto-segue). For information on automatically enabling auto-segue

when operating in Automation mode, review the property setting that controls

this action in Preferences.

Alternate Playback Controls

Besides using the deck transport [Play] buttons to start playing audio, there are two other methods of

starting playback that have the same effect as clicking on the transport [Play] button for a selected

deck.

Remote Start

Optionally, remote starts can be enabled in XStudio. When remote starts are wired up to your PC and

you have enabled them in Preferences, pushing the appropriate remote start button associated with

Deck 1, 2, 3 and optionally Deck 4, has exactly the same effect as clicking on the deck's [Play] button.

For more information on implementing remote starts, see the topic on the Remote Start Interface and

the Preferences Remote Starts topic.
