Scene memories

iLive has 250 Scene memories. These are 'snapshots' of all or a selection of the live mixing parameters.

They do not store the DSP bus configuration and user preferences.

Before starting go to the SURFACE / Preferences screen

and set the options to enable or disable the Scene

Up/Down/Go keys, and turn on or off the Scene Editing

Confirmation popup box. For the most secure operation we

recommend that you disable these keys and turn on the

confirmation popups.

Select the SCENE screen. Highlight a Scene in the left hand

list. Touch Name to open the onscreen keypad and enter a

name with up to 8 characters. Touch Description to add a

comment with up to 32 characters.

The quickest way to work with Scenes is to store everything.

Touch Store All to store all parameters to the Scene. Touch

Recall to overwrite the current iLive settings with the

contents of the memory. Once a Scene has contents stored

a green tick is displayed next to its name.

Note: To avoid losing important settings take care when

storing or recalling Scenes.

For more advanced applications you can choose what

parameters to put into a Scene so that only those are

overwritten. Touch Edit To open the list of available

parameters. Use the + and - buttons to expand or collapse

the list, and the View buttons to select parameters by type or

channel. You can make Single or Multiple selections.

Highlight your selection and touch Add to add them to the

Scene list on the right. You can add and remove items from

the Scene, and update items already in the Scene with the

current console settings. When you have finished editing the

contents Return to the Scene Manager page.

Touch Update to update just the existing contents of a

Scene with the current console settings. Unlike Store All this

does not add everything to the Scene.

You can copy, paste and delete Scenes. Highlight a Scene

in the list and touch Copy. Highlight another Scene and

touch Paste. The contents of the first Scene are pasted into

the second. The name is not copied. If that Scene was

empty a green tick will now appear. You can paste the

Scene into multiple locations. When you Delete a Scene its

contents are removed and the name reverts to 'No Name'.

Tip - You can use copy/paste to quickly set up several

Scenes with the same content list, and then use Update to

store different parameter settings for each as the sound

check or show progresses.

Scene Recall Safes lets you make selected input

channels and mix masters 'safe' so that their parameters are

not overwritten when a Scene is recalled. Hold down the

SCENE SAFES key and press the strip MIX keys on

channels you want to make safe. The SAFE icon in the strip

LCDs turns on for channels made safe.

Note: The mic preamp is not included in channels made

safe. This is because preamps can be patched to any input

channel, may be mapped to more than one channel, or used

as sources to other parts of the system which may not be

associated with the channel you want to make safe.
