Changed:
When daily folders are selected, the daily folder is only created when record is first pressed. This prevents empty daily folders being generated if the 788T is powered up every day but without recording anything. This also applies to the generation of top level (project) and bottom level (scene) folders i.e. they are only generated when record is pressed.
Fixed:
HP Power Up Gain settings 'last gain' and 'off' are now remembered after a power cycle.
RF hash/noise no longer causes the recorder to incorrectly stop recording in ExtTC/cont - Auto Record mode.
It will only stop when stationary TC code is detected.
Engaging record using a keyboard or logic input shortcut now works from menu screens as well as the main display.
Possible lockup if an excessively large number of characters are entered in the 'notes' field.
Fixed rare bug where connecting to a computer via Firewire/USB could cause file/folder corruption on the 788T HDD.
Faster power on (boot up) and ready to record, even with thousands of files on media.
Support for the CL-2 Remote Fader accessory
Input: Fader Range menu. Allows user to select the dB range of the mixer faders. There are three options:
i) Wide (off to +15 dB). This is the default and the only range available prior to this release. Allows boost and attenuation.
ii) Narrow (-15 to +15 dB). This narrows the range thus allowing for finer control of mix levels.
iii) Fade Only (off to 0 dB). This range only allows attenuation, no boost.
Up to +15 dB of gain selectable on mix track levels. This is selectable in the LEVELS view in the Track Setup Menu which is accessed by pressing the INPUT button.
Fixed
Elimination of a rare, random lockup condition which required a power cycling
Elimination of a rare, file/system corruption bug causing a file to be not recognized.
