Using Propagate Mode
You can use the Propagate command to capture changes and ap-
ply them to existing snapshots. Propagate mode is most useful
when you realize during the course of mixing that you want to
capture your current settings to use in other snapshots. You can
undo Propagate commands.
To update specific parameters in existing snapshots:
1 Make sure the channel is set as needed.
2 Click Propagate. The current data and channel scope is
cleared.
3 Set the scope to reflect only those parameters you want to up-
date by doing the following:
• For each parameter you want to update, click the corre-
sponding
Data Type button so that it is scoped (displayed in
red).
– and –
• For each channel you want to update, select the channel so
that it is scoped (displayed in red).
4 Select the snapshot or range of snapshots you want to update in
the Snapshots list.
5 Click Propagate. The scoped parameters are updated in the se-
lected snapshots.
Preview Mode
Preview mode lets you recall, store and edit snapshots without af-
fecting the current mix.
When enabled, Preview mode takes the system offline from the
live audio mix so you can “work ahead” during a rehearsal, per-
formance or event to preview upcoming snapshots and edit them
as needed. Any control that can be stored and recalled by snap-
shots is available while in Preview mode, and you can also mod-
ify the Snapshot list. Once you are done previewing or editing
snapshots, you can store your changes to update the existing
snapshots with your changes.
Using Preview Mode
The basic workflow for using Preview mode is as follows:
1 Make sure your active mix is set as desired, and make sure the
rehearsal, event or performance has an upcoming opportunity
for you to go offline.
2 Enter Preview mode by clicking the on-screen Preview button
in the main Snapshots page. The word “PREVIEW” flashes in
red across the screen for confirmation, as do all input and out-
put channel strip displays.
3 Do any of the following:
Edit the Snapshots List Reorder snapshots in the list, if desired,
by clicking and dragging them. Changes to the order of items in
the Snapshots list may affect the current active mix if the affected
snapshots rely on MIDI or MTC triggering. (For more informa-
tion, see “Changing Settings in Preview Mode” on page 203.)
Create a New Snapshot Adjust settings as desired and create a
new snapshot by clicking
New. (See “Creating New Snapshots”
on page 192.)
