5.17.2.2 Channel Selector Window
This window contains buttons that correspond with the channels that are
present within the active mix. Using these buttons, channels can be selected
for editing as follows:
All Chans selects all channels for editing;
Input selects all Input channels for editing;
MT Input
selects all Multitrack Input channels for editing;
MT Monitor selects all Multitrack Monitor channels for editing;
Group Out selects all Group Output channels for editing;
Master Out selects all Master Output channels for editing;
Aux Out selects all Auxiliary Output channels for editing.
Activating the left-hand button at the beginning of each row will select all
channels of that type. If both mono and stereo versions of a particular chan-
nel type are included in the VMC, just the mono or stereo channels may be
selected by clicking on the appropriate button. Channel types and/or versions
may be de-selected after a large selection (such as All Chans) has been made.
In addition to channel selection, buttons are included that allow editing of
group assignments and Control Group Masters. Channels that contribute to
each group may be also selected for editing as a group , via these controls.
These buttons function as follows:
Group selects all items associated with the group (group members, Control Group
Masters, and group assignments) for inclusion in the edit;
Master selects Control Group Masters for inclusion in the edit;
Member selects group members and group assignments for inclusion in the edit.
A set of ‘Group’, ‘Master’, and ‘Member’ buttons is provided for each group.
The top row of buttons act as global selectors for the group controls below.
The assignments of channels as group members are stored as part of the mix
data and may be unique to each mix. Therefore, only groups that have chan-
nels assigned as members will have ‘Member’ buttons available with the
group. In other words, whether or not the ‘Member’ buttons appear in the
Channel Selector Window is determined by the loaded mix/snapshot.
