Updating
ON/OFF buttons
So far we have only updated fader moves but this is only
part of the mix process, If you want the mix to be dynamic
and free from noise you will have to update the ON/OFF
buttons too. The channels, monitors, groups, master
effects sends and effects returns all have ON/OFF buttons
that can be automated.
Recording these ON/OFF buttons is extremely simple.
They are always in "update mode" in other words they are
in play mode but with record ready so if you press an ON
button during a mix it will be recorded. That's all there is
to it. To stop recording press the stop button.
As with the faders there are global modes for all of the ON
buttons. This allows you to drop all ON buttons into
record simultaneously_ (see reference section).
Because the effects sends are automated we can use the
automation system to add effects to the mix automatically.
To do this connect an effects device such as a reverb unit
to the console as shown below.
