If there are differences between the session being loaded and the current mixer size or inventory, the mixer must reconcile this
mismatch.
Example 1
Example 2
The saved session has more channels than does the current mixer configuration.
In this case, the session calls for 64 channels, while the system inventory has only 32. If the mixer
can be enlarged to 64 channels, the session will load without incident. Otherwise, the last 32
channels will be deleted and the settings associated with those channels will be lost. In either case,
it’s important to save a copy of the session before proceeding.
The I/O inventory of the saved session does not match the current mixer inventory.
Whenever the saved session’s I/O inventory is not the same as that of the mixer, there is a chance
that certain channels cannot be supported. If, for example, the session calls for a 128-channel
MADI device, while the mixer hardware in the same slot is an 8-channel I/O, it will be difficult to
provide the session with the channels it needs.
The Session Load routine provides two strategies for loading sessions onto mixers that are mismatched.
Optio n 1: Sessio n – The session loads completely, even though the device inventory does not match the session. Devices called for by
the session and missing from the rack slot will appear as not available (N/A). The session’s patching does not change, but the I/O
channels of unavailable devices are not accessible and are colored red.
