This tutorial applies to all different OS and MXWendler versions. Please note that the screenshots are made with Version 5 User Interface. Version 6 users please consider the differences in Version 6 Playlist.

Introduction

For long clips, new key in and key out points can be set in the rehearsal mode. This is especially useful in theatres, where only single scenes have to be practiced again and again.

Steps

1. First, load the desired media files into the Preload and create a playlist.

2. Go to Playlist and activate the 'Rehearsal Mode' with a left-click. (A)

3. The Rehearsal In and Rehearsal Out positions are represented in the cells as yellow bars. (B)

4. Define Rehearsal In and Rehearsal Out with ‘+’ / ‘-’. Double-click on the value to type it numerically. (C)

The modifications become active in the rehearsal mode as soon as the cue/the playlist is played back again.

Tip: when switching between the two modes the playback has to be stopped. Otherwise, it can happen that the rehearsal modifications will be taken over into the playlist.
