“Focus” is a function that lets you specify the parameters that will be updated when you recall a
scene. For example, it is convenient to use this if you want to recall only the input channel set-
tings of a certain scene.
1Press the SCENE field in the function
access area.
The SCENE LIST window will appear, where you can
perform various operations for scene memory.
1SCENE field
BFOCUS tab
2Press the FOCUS tab at the bottom of the
SCENE LIST window.
The FOCUS field will appear in the right half of the
SCENE LIST window.
1FOCUS field
In this field you can make settings for the Focus func-
tion.
The buttons in this field correspond to the scene list
shown in the left side of the SCENE LIST window.
The CURRENT SETTING field lets you make Focus
settings that will be used the next time you perform a
Scene Store operation.
3Use the buttons other than “ALL” to select
the parameters that will be subject to recall
for each scene.
These buttons correspond to the following parameters
(multiple selections are allowed).
4If you want to cancel the restrictions you
specified in step 3, so that all parameters
will be subject to recall, turn the ALL button
on.
When you turn on the ALL button, all other buttons for
that scene will be turned off. Turning on any other but-
ton will turn off the ALL button.
5Recall a scene for which you’ve made
Focus settings.
If buttons other than ALL are turned on for the scene,
only the parameters whose buttons are on will be
recalled. If the ALL button is turned on for the scene,
all parameters will be updated.
Using the Focus function
•As a function similar to Focus, there is also a “Recall Safe” function that lets you select channels and parameters
to be excluded from recall operations (
→ p. 148). However while the Focus function is specified for each scene,
Recall Safe settings are common to all scenes.

• Scenes for which Focus settings are made are shown by a
“FOCUS” indication in the STATUS field of the SCENE LIST
window.
•The Focus function can be used in conjunction with the Recall
Safe function (
→ p. 148). Channels or parameters that are
excluded from Recall operations by either Focus or Recall
Safe will not be recalled.
