Patch Views
The Patch View Selector filters the types of channels to display, based on what kind
of patch is to be performed.
There are four patch views:
MIXER AND DEVICES
Input
Patch between an assigned I/O device and one or more mixer channels.
Output Patch between channel outputs and any assigned I/O device.
Internal
Assign channels to groups, main out, and links.
N
ETWORK
P
ATCHING
Device to Device
Patch between assigned network devices.
Grid Filters
Each patch view has buttons above and to the left of the patch grid. These buttons select the filters
that determine the specific sources and destinations that can be patched in that grid. Grid filters are
subsets of the patch views. The Mix Busses filter is, for example, part of the Output Patch View.
The grid filters on the left define the channels that make up the rows of the grid. These are usually mixer
channels, except in the Device-to-Device view.
Columns of channels are defined by the top filters. These are almost always used to select I/O
devices. The only exception is the Internal view, where instead mixer busses are shown.
All I/O devices that have been assigned in the Setup window—both hardware and software I/Os—are
displayed on the filter frame (either left or top or both, depending on the purpose of the patch).
