Data can be stored, recalled and transferred between VENUE

managed separately, as follows:
Show Files
These files are used to store, recall and transfer sys-
tem settings, snapshot, and events.
Preset Files
These files are used to store settings for channel
strips, built-in processors and plug-ins, and Recall Safe Scope
Sets.
Console Setting Files
These files are used to transfer or back up
the current state of the VENUE SC48 system.
