1.Engage AUTO TOUCH.

2.Engage ALL, disengage BYPASS, and send timecode to the console –the POSITION readout will change to show time code is being received.

3.Move a parameter or recall a patch (user or factory preset).

Subsequent edits to any recorded automation moves may be performed in the Mix Editor. Enable the channel view by clicking on the Channel View button, then choose the plug-in you wish to view from the page drop-down menu. This displays a list of available channel and plug-in parameters.

Note: Parameters can be controlled from either

the GUI plug-in graphic parameters (using a mouse to modify the parameters) or via the VFD V-Pots and SELECT buttons (with the plug-in

parameters called up on the VFD readout).

Event Based

To automate the loading of a plug-in preset:

•Use the Event Automation Track, available under the Windows Menu as ‘Event Track’, to load plug- in user (previously stored) or factory preset patches at a specific time during automation playback.

General Note: Plug-in settings are recalled as

part of a console Snapshot, but may also be recalled as Presets (patches). If you are recalling snapshots and presets, be aware that one may override

the other.
