MUTE SCENES
can be copied from a SEQUENCED SCENE
(
PATCH) to a MANUAL
MUTE SCENE
. Manual MUTES cannot be copied to sequenced scenes or to
each other. To copy a
SEQUENCED SCENE into a MANUAL MUTE SCENE
, follow
the steps outlined below.
1 Press the
EDIT PREVIEW button C,it will begin to blink,indicating that the
system is in
EDIT PREVIEW mode.
2 Select
SEQUENCED SCENES by pressing the MICRO SCENE G button; it will
illuminate.
3 Scroll to the
SCENE to be copied using the UP/DOWN A keys to change
the
DISPLAY
B.
4 Hold down the
MICRO SCENE button.The display will show CPY?.
5 Continue holding-down the
MICRO SCENE button G, while pressing the
desired
MANUAL MUTE switch H. The display will show COPY, and the
sequenced
SCENE MUTE pattern is copied to the target
MANUAL MUTE
—overwriting whatever pattern may have originally been there.
6 The newly created
MANUAL MUTE SCENE can now be selected for editing
by pressing its select switch G. The copied
MUTE pattern will be there,you
can use that as a starting point for your edits.
7 Exit back to
NORMAL mode when you’re done by pressing EDIT PREVIEW
C again.
The copy feature can be used as a way to back-up your
MANUAL MUTE
SCENES
, even though it is not possible to copy from MANUAL MUTES to any
other mutes.Instead,use the highest-numbered
PATCHES (120–127) to cre-
ate the original versions of
MANUAL MUTE SCENES.Then use the copy func-
tion to transfer these patterns into the
MANUAL MUTES. It is always possible
to revert back to the original
PATCHES (120–127) and re-load/copy them
into the
MANUAL MUTES whenever needed.
PATCH
128 can also be used as an ALL MUTE memory. Program it with all
channels muted, then copy it to a
MANUAL MUTE when the need arises to
start a
SCENE with all channels muted—instead of all channels un-muted.
In order to start a
SCENE with all channels un-muted, hold-down the EDIT
SAFE
button to clear all mutes in a SCENE when editing.
