4.4.2.1 General Patch Navigation
4.4.2.1.1 Navigating the Sources/Targets List
The audio sources list (located on the Y axis) and the targets list (on the X
axis) allow the user to find and select a Source/Target pair, and to make or
clear a required cross-point connection.
There are different ways to navigate and select the required source and target
for making or clearing patch connections. The simplest process to select the
required Source/Target selection is described below:
1
Select the subcategory of the required source/target using the ‘Show
Sources’ and ‘Show Targets’ drop-down menus. This will show in the
X-Y axis list all the possible sources/targets available in the configuration
currently loaded. Scrolling using the standard windows scroll bar may be
required to see all the sources/targets from the chosen category. Scrolling
is
not
recommended as the fastest way to navigate the sources list.
2 Move the cursor into the Sources/Targets List and right-click. This opens
a selection list to allow fast navigation to some pre-defined sub classes
of Inputs or Channel types (such as Input Channels, Auxiliary Channels,
etc.), see the next screenshot. Select the required Input or Channel type
category. This will navigate directly to the first Source/Target of the chosen
category (e.g Mono Input Channel 1, Auxiliary Channel 1, etc.). Select the
required Source/Target by clicking on the Source/Target name or by using
the keyboard cursor arrows to move up and down the list. This will posi-
tion the Selection bars of the X-Y axis to the chosen Source/Target. The
intersection of the two Selection bars will allow the making or clearing of
a cross-point based on the chosen Source and Target ( see chapter 4.4.2.4
for information on how to make or clear cross-point connections).
