Type Text Search
Type Text search lets you use the keyboard for fast navigation
to a channel, or to quickly go to a specific snapshot or event.
You can enter the first characters of a channel name or the ab-
solute channel number to target that channel on the ACS. (See
also “Selecting and Targeting Channels” on page 36.)
To search for and select a channel by name:
1
Go to the Inputs, Outputs, or Patchbay page.
2
Type the first few letters, channel number, or full name of
the channel. For example, type “s” to go to the first channel
beginning with the letter s (such as Snare).
3
Press the Tab key to cycle through and select any other
channels beginning with that letter (such as
Snare Top
,
Snare
Bottom
, or
Strings
).
To search for and select a list item by name (or number):
1
Go to the Snapshots, Events or Filing page. Or, click to open
any Presets window (built-in Dynamics or EQ presets, Input
Channel presets, or Scope Sets).
2
Type the first few letters or number of the desired item.
3
Press the Tab key to cycle through and select any other items
that begin with the same letters.
Channel Numbers and Names
VENUE SC48 channel numbers are “absolute” channel num-
bers. Renaming changes the displayed name associated with
each channel, but the absolute channel number remains
fixed.
To search for and select a channel by absolute number:
Type a number on the keyboard to select the corresponding
channel.
Targeting Plug-In Inserts
Selecting a single channel targets that channel in the ACS.
This lets you enable Inserts Mode to use the Output encoders
to adjust plug-ins inserted on that channel.
See Chapter 9, “Outputs and Output Routing.”
Type Text search can also be used to select snapshots and
events.
For more information, see See Chapter 19, “Plug-Ins.”
