ADR Modes

You can activate or deactivate Free Run mode.

Note

The ADR modes take into account all settings in the ADR Setup window.

Free Run Off (Automatic)

This mode allows you to record a take according to the position and length of the selected marker. In the different ADR statuses, the following happens:

  • If you click Rehearse, a locator range according to the position and length of the selected markers is selected in the Project window ruler. The project cursor jumps to the start of the Pre-roll phase and playback starts. At the end, the project cursor automatically jumps back to the start position.

  • If you click Record, the project cursor jumps to the start of the Pre-roll phase and playback starts. When the left locator is reached, recording starts. At the end of the Post-roll phase, recording stops automatically and the project cursor jumps back to the left locator. The recorded event is automatically resized to this position.

  • If you click Review, the project cursor jumps to the start of the Pre-roll phase and playback starts. At the end of the Post-roll phase, playback stops automatically and the project cursor jumps back to the take start position.

Free Run On

Activate Free Run for more flexibility. It allows you to use the project cursor position as the ADR start position. You can set the project cursor position manually or using a marker in the marker list. Free Run works as follows:

  • If you click Rehearse, the left locator is set to the project cursor position and playback starts from there. If Pre is enabled, playback starts with the pre-roll that you defined in the ADR Setup window. Playback stops when you click Stop.

  • If you click Record, the project cursor jumps to the take start position and recording starts. If Pre is enabled, playback starts at the beginning of the pre-roll phase and recording starts when the take start position is reached. Recording stops when you click Stop.

  • If you click Review, the project cursor jumps to the take start position and playback starts. If Pre is enabled, playback starts at the beginning of the pre-roll phase. Playback stops when you click Stop.

    Note

    If Return to Start Position on Stop is activated in the Preferences dialog (Transport page), the project cursor returns to the take start position.
