Hey Nelson,
OK, well, there you go. The button in the transport is precisely like the
record button on any tape machine while the other record button is a toggle
to turn the track select button into a record arm button. Rather than having
a dedicated select button and a dedicated record enable button, they've
decided to make a dual function button to save space. This was the case on
the 002 as well. Does that help clarify?

I need to elaberate a little more. The select buttons on the 003 are to
arm each track when the unit is in record mode.

Nelson,
I take it that you've never worked with an analog multitrack recorder?
Track record buttons are separate from the transport record button for the
ability to arm and disarm any tracks at any given point along with the
ability to be either in record or playback mode. It's a dual level
scenario for those who need that functionality. For most people,
record-arming several tracks and simply going right into record mode is
enough. Taking it a step further, one can play back material and just
punch in the armed tracks at a specific point. Finally, one can take
certain tracks in and out of record as needed, depending upon their setup
and what sources are being recorded.
HTH,
Slau

I read the getting started guide again. it helped with a couple of thing.
like when you turn off the rec arm button it does not disable the arming
of the tracks you've selected. So, now I understand why I blue out the
bridge.
And the selection buttons have quite a few functions Depending on what
mode you are in. Now I have the
question. Why have a rec arm button at all. You've got the record button
on
the transport. And if rec arm button does not disable the selected tracks
so
you can punch in and out more then one track at a time, it seems useless.
The getting started manual is good at explaining what the messages are on
the display. But that does not really help me.
Now I am going to read the ProTools stuff again. And if I figure this out
I'll try to write a doc that will help blind folk work with the 003. I've
got another weekend recording session which seems to help more then
anything. You know the old expression being thrown into the fire.
I like the 003 except for the pre's. The a to d 's and D to a's seem to
be pretty good. The board is lade out in a manner that is easy for me to
navigate.and it's fairly portable.I take it to school and to these
recording sessions. So as long as I'm on the go it's a good fit for me.
