the contents of each Patchbay page can be exported to a text file.
These can be useful for generating an input list (line list) directly

for an upcoming show, then export and print the channel names
list for use during sound check.

1 Go to Options > System.

print a complete system description.
For more information, see “System Information Export” on
page 58.
To export Patchbay names:

2 Click the Export Patch List icon in the upper right corner of the
screen.
The Patchbay names appear in an open HTML file that you can
save and print, or open in an HTML-compatible application for
formatting or other modification. For more information, see
