Except
[Except] allows you to exclude a subset from active channels when you are
recording a cue or group. You can also use [Except] to exclude a subset of the
current selected channels from direct keyboard control.
For example, you may have several cues in faders, and some captured channels.
You can use [Except] to record all channels, except a subset that you indicate.
When using [Except], you can designate any recorded set of channels, such as
cues or groups, as the excepted channels. Or, you can designate specific
channels by number and [And] and [Thru].
You can also use [Except] when you are selecting dimmers on the softpatch
screen or cues on the Track Sheet.
