Patching screen function buttons
The function panel buttons of the Patching screen are described in the following table.
When selected, a button’s background colour will change to a darker shade.
Legend Description
SINGLE Lets you patch a single source to a single destination or multiple
destinations. See “Single patching (SINGLE)” on page 75.
SEQ. Lets you select multiple sources and patch them one by one to
their destinations. In this method, each source can only have one
destination. See “Sequence patching (SEQ.)” on page 76.
AUTO Lets you select a block of sources and patch them all
automatically, simply by selecting a single destination. Any
existing patches within the destination range will be replaced by
the new ones. See “Automatic patching (AUTO)” on page 77.
NONE Clears all currently selected patch connectors from all tabs in the
From and To sections. The green triangles will disappear
accordingly.
LIST Changes the tooltip type from standard to list, but is only available
when carrying out a sequence patching operating via the SEQ.
button (see “List tooltip” on page 67).
CHECKPOINT Sets a patching store point, or snapshot, that contains the
patching status at that instant. There is only one checkpoint
available, so each time CHECKPOINT is clicked the previous
checkpoint is overwritten.
RESTORE Reverts patching status to the last checkpoint or, if no checkpoints
have been created, it will revert patching status to the power up
condition. All patching done in the intervening period will be lost.
UNDO Undoes the latest single patch, even if it was part of a multiple
patching operation. Repeated clicks will undo the preceding
patching operations, going back to the last checkpoint, or power
up if no checkpoints have been created.
REDO Redoes an undo. This can be repeated for each undo in the
previous undo operation.
CLEAR SEL. Clears all current selections and their patches.
Important:
Unlike the NONE button, which merely removes the current
selections (highlighted in yellow), CLEAR SEL. goes a step
further by removing the patch as well. This will stop any
audio that may have been going through the patched
signal.
CLEAR Clears all patching (see “To clear all current patching” on
page 77).
Important:
Exercise great caution when using this function. Observe
the warning that appears after clicking this button.
CONFIG Opens the AES50 Device Configuration window, from where
you can set up the I/O tabs in the Patching screen (see “The
AES50 Device Configuration window” on page 72).
