New Features
It’s now possible to drag-and-drop audio files from Disk Manager and/or Windows Explorer to the
EDL. This will import them in place into the project.
If you use the CTRL modifier when you drag and drop, the files are copied as well as
being imported and dropped onto the EDL (or clipstore). Also, there is a setup option under General/
Drag and Drop - 'Copy audio files dragged into the Clipstore / Playlist from Explorer' - when this is
ticked, a drag and drop will always copy the files to the project directory when importing them; with
this setting the CTRL modifier reverses the logic so that a CTRL-drag-drop does a normal import-in-
place.
Notice also that when you drag and drop files to a Clipstore Folder, they are copied to that folder (in
addition to appearing in the Source Tracks Folder). Use this to segregate files when you import them.
You can drag and drop MP3 files to the clipstore - they will be converted and imported
into the project. This requires the MP3 import/export option.
There's now a 'Copy tracks' tick box in the 'Import Source Tracks' and 'Copy and
Import...' browsers so that you can change your mind about copying/not copying.
Three new Time Display options 'Start of clip' - i.e. measuring the time from the start of a selected
clip, 'End of Clip' - counting down to the end of the selected clips, and 'PQ Track' - from the start of
the previous PQ track start.
Stream name Templates - new options in the Playlist menu to Save and Load Stream
name templates, in both MTR and SADiE5.
Hotkeys for Stream Focus and for renaming streams in order to make the track naming process less
laborious. These are in the 'Playlist - Stream Focus' section of Hotkey Setup. We suggest that you set
'Focus Next Stream' to TAB; 'Focus Previous Stream' to SHIFT-TAB, and 'Rename focussed stream' to
Q (or some other key that's close to that side of the keyboard).
Press TAB to put a red box around Stream 1's button; press Q to rename Stream 1; type a name;
Enter, TAB, Q, confirms Stream 1 and opens Stream 2 for name-changing. Type, enter, tab, q and so
on.
Zoom to 'Show Selected Entries' function, hotkey and "S" button (beside the zoom
presets along the bottom of the EDL) to zoom to display the whole of the range of entries that are
selected in red.
Hotkeys and right-mouse-click menu items to allow direct editing of the Clip Notes and Clip Dialogue
fields. The hotkeys are in the 'Playlist' section of Hotkey Setup and the functions are called 'Edit Clip
Notes....' and 'Edit Clip Dialogue of Selected Entry'.
The Project dialog now asks to set the Sample and Frame rate. This is mostly for conveniencyou e; it
doesn't stop you changing at a later date, but in SADiE MTR software it's advisable to pre-select these
when making the project.
The Project “Select Audio Disk” now has “Add” and “Remove” buttons to allow the user to directly
add new record destinations rather than having to do this only in Disk Manager. A first-time user is
now offered to switch to “Record to Component Directory” if no Record Destinations have been set.
New 'SADiE is shutting down' message after SADiE closes.
Colouring of the input selector drop-down buttons in LRX and H64 to distinguish between
Mic/Line/AES/MADI etc. The colours are set in the Audio I/O setup page by right-clicking on the
Mic/Line/etc. headings. Also note that double-clicking on these headings changes all inputs (where
appropriate) to that setting.
A new Input Select button for LRX and H64s to allow switching of input format directly in the EDL as
well as in the Audio I/O setup matrix. Clicking the “bulbous microphone” button shows all possible
input types for that input number.
DAT ID reading - available on PCM4+, PCM8+, PCM-H8 and PCM-H16.
Additional 9-pin slave modes - sync to LTC or VITC, in order to allow SADiE to be controlled by
devices that don't act as a synchroniser.
