D-Show Profile Guide 188
The following plug-in functions are not available while in Pre-
view mode:
• Plug-ins cannot be added to or removed from rack slots
• Plug-in presets cannot be recalled or saved
• Plug-in parameters cannot be changed (you cannot open
plug-in windows while in Preview mode)
• Plug-ins cannot be installed
You must explicitly add or update plug-in (or MIDI) data to
update snapshots, whether or not Preview mode is enabled.
You can do this from the main Snapshot page, or from the
plug-in racks.
MIDI in Preview Mode
Incoming MIDI or MTC continues to trigger snapshot recall
while in Preview mode. However, MIDI messages stored to
snapshots are not sent out when a snapshot is recalled in Pre-
view mode. For more information, see “Adding MIDI Mes-
sages to Snapshots” on page 189 and “Adding Plug-In Data to
Snapshots” on page 190.
MTC and Other Online Event Triggers
While in Preview mode, triggers that occur in the online state
of the console are executed, including MTC-driven recall of
snapshots. Triggers caused by changes to the offline (Preview)
controls are ignored and do not cause events to occur. For
more information, see Chapter 22, “Events.”
Undoing Snapshot Commands
The Undo function returns the console to the state immedi-
ately before the last snapshot command. Undo is multi-level
(up to 100), is available while in Preview mode and after per-
forming an Edit or Propagate mode action.
◆
If the Undo button is highlighted, you can place the cursor
over the button to display text in the status bar describing
what snapshot actions will be undone.
◆
If the Undo button is dimmed, Undo is not available.
To undo a snapshot command:
■
Click the Undo button in the Snapshot commands section.
Disabling Snapshots
You can temporarily disable the storage and recall of all snap-
shots. While snapshots are globally disabled, you can target
snapshots in the Snapshots List to preview their properties,
but you cannot recall them.
To disable all snapshots:
■
Click the Disable button in the Snapshot commands sec-
tion.
Suspend MTC Recall
To disable MTC Recall of individual snapshots in the list:
1
Click the green Enable icon in the row for the desired snap-
shot so that it is unlit.
2
Click the Disable/Enable icon again to re-enable the snap-
shot.
Updating plug-in data in an associated snapshot from the plug-in view
Undoing snapshot recall commands may cause audio
to be interrupted. Use Undo with caution in perfor-
mance.
