At the base of the screen, the User Command Dialogue
Line bar displays commands from the dedicated
Control Keyboard and QWERTY Keyboard for
confirmation before {ENTER}. There are command
line merge functions available alongside the GUI-
based assemble described previously.
MERGE command lines
The merge mix automation data command lines allow
specified parts of a saved mix or a snapshot setting to
be merged into the current working mix. The
parameters which can be specified are:
• which CHANNELS
• which CONTROL GROUP FADERS
• which MIX (including the current working mix) or
SNAPSHOT source
• START and END Times from the source mix
• DESTINATION Times for time-shifted merge
• BUTT or RAMP for the merge mix sections
• joining of Static Objects to other Static Objects
The UNDO and REDO functions will work on any
merge operations in the normal way.
The constituents of a merge command are as follows:
1
{MERGE}
