copying a mute scene
MUTE SCENES can be copied from a SEQUENCED SCENE ( PATCH ) to a MANUAL
MUTE SCENE . Manual MUTES cannot be copied to sequenced scenes or to
each other. To copy a SEQUENCED SCENE into a MANUAL MUTE SCENE , follow
the steps outlined below.
1 Press the EDIT PREVIEW button C, it will begin to blink, indicating that the
system is in EDIT PREVIEW mode.
2 Select SEQUENCED SCENES by pressing the MICRO SCENE G button; it will
illuminate.
3 Scroll to the SCENE to be copied using the UP / DOWN A keys to change
the DISPLAY B.
4 Hold down the MICRO SCENE button.The display will show CPY ? .
5 Continue holding-down the MICRO SCENE button G, while pressing the
desired MANUAL MUTE switch H. The display will show COPY , and the
sequenced SCENE MUTE pattern is copied to the target MANUAL MUTE
—overwriting whatever pattern may have originally been there.
6 The newly created MANUAL MUTE SCENE can now be selected for editing
by pressing its select switch G. The copied MUTE pattern will be there, you
can use that as a starting point for your edits.
7 Exit back to NORMAL mode when you’re done by pressing EDIT PREVIEW
C again.
The copy feature can be used as a way to back-up your MANUAL MUTE
SCENES , even though it is not possible to copy from MANUAL MUTES to any
other mutes. Instead, use the highest-numbered PATCHES (120–127) to cre-
ate the original versions of MANUAL MUTE SCENES .Then use the copy func-
tion to transfer these patterns into the MANUAL MUTES . It is always possible
to revert back to the original PATCHES (120–127) and re-load/copy them
into the MANUAL MUTES whenever needed.
PATCH 128 can also be used as an ALL MUTE memory. Program it with all
channels muted, then copy it to a MANUAL MUTE when the need arises to
start a SCENE with all channels muted—instead of all channels un-muted.
In order to start a SCENE with all channels un-muted, hold-down the EDIT
SAFE button to clear all mutes in a SCENE when editing.
