Global Functions
There are several automation functions that apply to the automation system on a global basis.
These functions are known as “Global Functions.”
The “Global Functions” are grouped into three (3) different categories:
•
Global Automation Functions: Automation functions that apply to the overall system and
are not channel oriented
•
Function Enables: Enables for Faders, Groups, Switches, Timecode, Leave Write, and
Control Surface (DAW control)
•
Automation Section Safe Modes: Safeties that prevent changes to automation data for
Switches, Mute 2, Mute 1, Fader 2 and Fader 1
MUTE WRITE: Engages Mute Overwrite mode when held:
•
Allows writing mute and switch automation
independently of the fader
•
Holding down the Mute Write button on the fader, will
replace all existing switch moves for the selected
sections associated with that fader
•
Previously recorded changes will be erased
•
This happens regardless of the current mode of the
sections
•
The selected section is chosen using the SEL button
on the fader module or the Channel Control window
•
If the Fader 1 or Fader 2 sections are selected, only
their associated mutes will be overwritten
•
If the Switch section is selected, then all 11
automation switches will be overwritten
•
Section safes are respected by the Mute Overwrite
function, even if the section in question is selected on
the fader.
•
The Mute Overwrite function is only available from
the fader
•
There is no visual indication when Mute Overwrite is
engaged
•
