Resource Sharing
5. When you are done with the temporary use of this resource, select that
logical device and touch
Release to free it for use elsewhere, or simply
touch the Release Undesired button to release all these resources.
You can also release a resource temporarily for use elsewhere without dis-
turbing the desired resources. For example, if the other suite needs an extra
M/E, the TD can select one not currently being used and release the phys-
ical M/E for use in the other suite. That M/E still remains a desired
resource, however. When the other suite is done with the M/E and releases
it, touching
Acquire Desired recaptures that M/E.
Temporary Acquisition vs. Desired Acquisition
For temporary use of a resource, do not touch the Desired button, as this
marks that resource to be acquired whenever the Acquire Desired button is
touched.
If you wish to always acquire a particular resource, mark it as Desired and
save that Suite Prefs file. When that Suite Pref is loaded at a later time those
marked resources will be listed as desired and will be acquired with the
Acquire Desired button.
Resource Sharing and Main Panel Source Selection
Main panel M/E banks that have not acquired a physical M/E go dark and
do not operate.
The re-entry buttons for M/Es not currently acquired still illuminate when
pressed, but do not select the output of that M/E if it is being used in the
other suite.
Resource Sharing and Menu Panel Operation
Many menus will display touch button items for un-acquired resources,
and if touched these buttons will illuminate. However, changes made to
that menu for un-acquired resources are ignored.
Resource Sharing and the Kalypso Still Store
Still Store Playback Operations
Still Store playback operations can be performed in both suites simultane-
ously. Pairs of Kalypso Still Store outputs can be acquired by a suite for
exclusive use in that suite. If the Still Store outputs are acquired as the same
logical output numbers, effects built with Still Store elements can be run
correctly in either suite. Stills and animations cannot be loaded to Still Store
outputs that are not acquired by that suite.
Stills and animations stored in the cache are available for use by either
suite. Stills can be loaded simultaneously to different outputs in the same
