Back in the linear days we primarily had A mode, B mode and C mode edl sorting. A mode was start at the top and do each edit in chronological order. C mode was reel by reel optimizing for source shuttle so each reel's edits would be in an order from start of tape to end of tape on the source side. The gotcha with Preread C mode was often the preread edits would be listed before the A side edit so there was nothing to preread from and you had to manually bounce around the edl to avoid issues. B mode was similar to C mode but IIRC is optimized Record shuttle.
Most of my onlines were C mode but I'm not remembering the "spirit" of B mode assembly as clear. Can anyone refresh this Dino brain?
There were also D mode and E mode which dealt with clustering effects at some point in the edl. I never used those so I'm sketchy on the specifics.
I do remember prereader was a great piece of software for getting a very efficient edl.
I figure with labor day coming up some of us need some good topics to discuss around the BBQ and what better the EDL and Assembly modes?
