4.4.5.3.1 Console Setup
Tip: Always work with active device labels ( SysAdmin – Device Labels – Use
Device Labels , and Overwrite Chan. User Label with Device Label )
In this phase, all the necessary console setup work is made. No actors or
musicians need to be on stage. Therefore this setup phase can also be done
with Virtual Vista without having the physical console available.
• Select one from the ready-made configurations (see chapters 2.1.5 and 6 )
the one that is best suited for your needs, and create appropriate project
and title names for the particular production.
• Do the labeling of interfaces (device labels).
• Create patch points – from interfaces to input channels, from output chan -
nels to output interfaces, as well as every other patch connection that is
needed (e.g. shared processes).
• Add the user labels to the input interfaces, i.e., the labels of the characters
of the play.
