New Editing Features!                                                                       HOW FAST IS IT?    360 Systems' new Short/cut 2000 edits with unprecedented speed -- every editing operation is many times faster than the original model. Plus, you get the convenience of Short/cut's direct-access buttons. Now, editing is virtually instantaneous, so even the most demanding projects can be completed in record time.     If you haven't experienced the speed and ease a Short/cut 2000 Editor can bring to your studios, it's time to take another look. SHORT/CUT 2000 INCLUDES THESE NEW EDITING FEATURES*    Since Short/cut Editors first appeared, we've worked hard to add many new features our customers asked for. If you're familiar with the original Short/cut (before our "99" model), you'll be interested in its new capabilities. And if you already own any Short/cut Editor, you can easily upgrade to full Short/cut 2000 status! FADE IN AND FADE OUT    Applying the FADE IN or FADE OUT command will fade audio smoothly to or from silence. Just select the region to be faded using the Edit In and Edit Out marks. Fades are completely non-destructive, so it's easy to try different lengths. RELATIVE FADES    Now it's possible to create a transition from one audio level to another, over a selected span of time. GAIN ADJUSTMENT    Raise or lower the level of a selected region of audio, with adjustable transition-time ramps to the entry and exit points. CROSSFADE EDITS     When performing a Cut or Insert operation, a crossfade can be placed across the edit. A Cut executed with crossfade removes selected material, and places a crossfade across the edit point. Similarly, an Insert will crossfade to and from the original material. Crossfade length is completely adjustable. EXTERNAL SAMPLE RATE SYNCHRONIZATION    Short/cut 2000's sample clock can now be synchronized to an external reference, for perfect synchronism with external equipment. Use either of the AES/EBU inputs. FILE TRANSLATION AND FILE EXCHANGE CAPABILITY    Short/cut 2000 will import and export audio files in many popular formats, including WAV, BWF (broadcast wave, which includes titles), AIFF, SD-2, 360 Systems Instant Replay® and 360 Systems DigiCart® formats. USING SHORT/CUT 2000 WITH PERSONAL COMPUTERS    If you're using a PC, Mac, or another audio workstation, you'll be able to share audio files with Short/cut 2000. It reads and writes Zip® and Jaz® disks in DOS or HFS (Mac) formats, at 44.1k or 48k. Using e-mail and a personal computer, professional quality audio can be remotely recorded and transferred to (or from) any Short/cut 2000. Sound effects, music clips or news stories are as close as a telephone line. And with Short/cut editors, audio quality is far superior to MP3- format audio. DETAILS    A new "D-NET Echo" feature lets Short/cut pass D-NET transmissions through to any other DigiCart/II or Instant Replay recorder in the network. Bleep can now be set to any of four output levels, or to silence. * Many of these features were included in the Short/cut '99 model. Speed improvements are unique to Short/cut 2000.
