Channel Shuffling
If the destination channel is already occupied,
moving a signal from right to left results in a shuf-
fle of other signals after the new destination chan-
nel. If the destination channel is already occupied,
moving a signal from left to right shuffles any and
all signals after the new destination channel and
leaves the previous channel empty.

Resetting Paths (with the Default Button)

and so on, corresponding to the order that PREs
appear in the Peripherals dialog.
• Create default mappings for all eight channels
on all the currently selected PREs.
To reset path names:

• Select a PRE path by clicking on its name.
• Select multiple PRE paths by Shift-clicking
the desired path names.

Active and Inactive Paths
Paths can be globally configured for Active or In-
active status in the I/O Setup Dialog. When PRE
paths are inactive, they do not appear in the Mix or
Edit windows.
Making a Mic Preamp inactive can be useful if the
PRE will be disconnected from the MIDI port or
powered off during a session. You can also make
Mic Preamps inactive so that they do not appear in
the Mix and Edit windows.

tive.

tive. This is the default state.

Setup > I/O
.

Mic Preamps
tab.

ate choice.
