Apollo Software Manual Chapter 4: Console Recall Plug-In 73
SYNC
The Console Recall plug-in has a button called SYNC (synchronize) that is not present
in the Console application. When a DAW project containing Console Recall is saved and
SYNC is active, the current state of the Console application is stored within the Console
Recall plug-in.
Since plug-in settings are saved within DAW project files, using SYNC enables Console’s
current state to be stored within the DAW project file without saving or loading Console
sessions presets via the Console’s
Session Recall functions.
When the DAW project file is subsequently reloaded, Console is automatically restored
to the previous settings state, regardless of any changes to Console or Apollo that were
made in the interim.
This feature ensures the DAW project will sound exactly the same when reloaded at a
later date, even if Console contains customized settings that might affect the audio, such
as send mixes, signal routings, and/or Realtime UAD Processing.
Enabling SYNC
When Console Recall is first loaded, SYNC is disabled. The function is
inactive when the button is white, and enabled when the button is yellow.
Enabling SYNC does not change the Console settings; SYNC doesn’t do
anything until the DAW project file is saved and subsequently reloaded.
Important: SYNC saves the Console settings within the DAW file, not
the Console application. Therefore the DAW project file must be saved
to disk to retain the Console settings in the project.
Effect on Recall Menu in Console
When a DAW project is loaded that contains the Console Recall
plug-in with SYNC enabled, the
Session Name in the Con-
sole application displays “Sync Session” and the display is
dimmed. See
“Session Recall” on page 54 for related de-
tails.
Loading Synchronized DAW Projects
If SYNC was enabled when a DAW project file containing Console Recall was saved,
then loading that DAW project will load the Console settings saved in the plug-in, and
the Console settings that were active before the DAW project was loaded is overwritten.
However, the Console settings that were active before the DAW project was loaded can
be easily recovered if desired using the
Cached Sessions in the Recall Menu within the
Console Application. See “Recall Menu” on page 56 for details.
If SYNC was disabled when a DAW project file containing Console Recall was saved, then
loading that project will not change the Console settings that were active before the DAW
project was loaded.
