copying a mute scene
Copying a Mute Scene:
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) Still holding down the Micro Scene button (G),now also press the
desired Manual Mute switch (H).The display will show "Copy",and the
Sequenced Scene Mute pattern is copied to the target Manual Mute,over-
writing whatever pattern may have originally been there.
6) You can now select the newly created Manual Mute Scene 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.
NOTE:You can use this copy feature as a way to "Back-up" your Manual
Mute Scenes,even though you can’t copy from Manual Mutes to any other
Mutes.Instead, use the highest numbered Patches (120 to 127) to create
the original versions of your Manual Mute Scenes.Then use the copy func-
tion to transfer those patterns into the Manual Mutes.You can always go
back to the originals (120 to 127) and re-load (copy) them into the Manual
Mutes whenever needed.You can also use Patch 128 as an All Mute memo-
ry.Program it with all channels muted, you can then copy it to a Manual
Mute when you need to start a Scene with all channels muted instead of all
channels un-muted ( you already have a way to start a Scene with all chan-
nels un-muted,you can hold down the Edit Safe button to clear all mutes in
a Scene when editing).
