Automatic patching (AUTO)
You can patch a block of source patch connectors, just by selecting a single destination.
This is called “automatic patching”. When using automatic patching, note the following:
• Sources are selected in blocks (see “To select a block of patch connectors in the
From section” on page 75).
• You can only select one block of sources.
• Destinations are restricted to a single type.
• The selected destination forms the start of the automatically patched range of
destinations.
• Sources and destinations are automatically patched in ascending order, the lowest
numbered source and the selected destination forming the first patch.
• Sources will only be patched up to the highest numbered destination of the current
destination type. If there are any sources left over, automatic patching pauses. You
can then patch these by selecting another destination.
