Managing the scenes
An automation section in the master bay (see item H in Figure 5 “Main areas of
the control surface” in chapter 3) supports the Automation screen by providing
a number of controls for scene navigation and management. A jogwheel and a
next LCD button are unique automation controls, while the store, ok, cancel,
last and now buttons are replicated on the Automation screen.
The four coloured, backlit buttons are context-sensitive and illuminate only when
they are available. Typically, three scenes in the cue list (Automation screen)
will be highlighted to match the button colours (red, yellow or green) to show
which scene each button will act upon.
The jogwheel quickly scrolls through the individual scenes in either direction.
You can even go to the empty scenes towards the end of the cue list and then wrap
to the beginning. Operation of the jogwheel does not aect scene selection.
The next LCD button displays information about the scene you have just
scrolled to.
Additional function buttons on the Automation screen allow you to copy
scenes and also to choose what is stored within each scene (store and recall
scope buttons).
>> To navigate the scenes using the jogwheel
Rotate the jogwheel in a clockwise or anti-clockwise direction to scroll through
the scenes one by one.
When using the jogwheel the next LCD button will illuminate yellow and will
track the scene currently highlighted in yellow in the cue list. In this case,
pressing this button will only have an aect if a non-empty scene is
currently highlighted.
>> To recall a scene
Important:
When recalling a new scene, make sure monitor output levels are low,
as the new scene’s settings may produce higher audio output levels
than the one it is replacing. Also, recalling a scene clears any unsaved
adjustments made to the previous scene.
Do one of the following:
• Press last to change scene selection to the one currently highlighted in red in
the cue list, which was the last selected scene.
• Press now to change scene selection to the one currently highlighted in yellow
in the cue list.
• Press next (LCD button) to change scene selection to the one currently
highlighted in green in the cue list, which is the scene immediately following
the ‘now’ scene. However, if you have used the jogwheel the eect will
be dierent.
>> To create a new scene using the current settings
1. Click STORE SCENE.
2. In the Store Scene window (shown right), type in the scene name.
