Parameter Matrix
The parameter matrix is a scrollable grid in which you can safe
parameters and channels. You can undo and redo parameter
matrix operations.
Parameters are represented in the columns of the parameter
matrix; channels are listed along the left side in rows.
Clicking in the grid enables safe status for that parameter on
that channel. Parameter and Channel grid icons provide
shortcuts to “safe all” parameters in a single-click, and to safe
entire channels. Clicking these icons lets you quickly toggle
recall safe status for entire columns and rows. You can also use
the master grid icon located in the upper left most corner to
toggle the entire grid.
The display state of the Parameter and Channel grid icons in-
dicate safe status for that column or row as follows:
None
A dark Parameter or Channel grid icon indicates that no
items in that column or row are safe enabled.
Some
A dark triangle inside a lit blue circle indicates that at
least one item in that column or row is safe enabled.
All
A lit (white) triangle indicates that all items in that column
or row are safe enabled.
Channel Safe Controls
The CHANNEL SAFE column acts as a global “all channel” set-
ting or override, mirroring the SAFE switch on the console and
on-screen (when in Input Safe Switches act as Automation
Safes mode).
Controls in the CHANNEL SAFE column are not part of the pa-
rameter matrix; they function
in addition to
the parameter ma-
trix. As a result, you do not need to enable any CHANNEL
SAFE settings to use the Recall Safe parameter matrix.
