button will light and the parameter you just updated will remain in touch mode until you press the
touch
but-
ton. At this point the
Touch
button is no longer illuminated and the parameter you moved no longer sends
'touched' messages. You can move as many parameters as you like and the
touch
button will continue to
send touch messages for all those parameters until it is pressed at which time touch is released for those
controls.
Arming non touch-sensitive controls
Should you want to put a non touch parameter into 'touch' without moving the parameter, press and hold
the
touch
button and then move a non-touch control on the surface. This will end a touch message to the
engine - but while, the button is held down, the controls themselves are prevented from changing their val-
ues. This is similar to the way in which parameters are selected for copying via the
m 1-2
buttons (see
page).
Note:
It is possible to touch parameters by holding down the
touch
button and then wig-
gling the control even if some controls are already in
touch
mode and the button is lit.
When releasing the button after such an action, the button remains lit and parameters
already in
touch
remain so. In this case, to release
touch
from all parameters, press the
Touch
button.
The Faders, aux knobs and joystick are true touch-sensitive controls and send touch messages when they
are indeed touched.
10 Store button
Overview
An
Ergonomic Spread
is the layout of faders currently selected to the surface of the console. The
Ergo-
nomic Spread Store
button allows the storage of the current
Ergonomic Spread
into one of the
Ergo-
nomic Spread
buttons
1-8
.
Note:
Storing and Recalling an Ergonomic Spread is an entirely non-destructive process.
The only thing that updating, recalling or modifying an Ergonomic Spread affects is which
faders are currently selected to the slots in your console.
Normal Operation
Pressing the
Store
button lights the
Store
button indicator and enters
Store Mode
- until one of the four
Ergonomic Spread
buttons on the
Expert Panel
is pressed, or using the
mod
button to access
Ergo-
nomic Spread 5-8
- at which point the current
Ergonomic Spread
is stored into button and
Store Mode
is
exited.
To escape from
Store mode
without storing the spread - touch either
Solo Clear
touch point. This will
extinguishe the
Store
button indicator and exits the mode.
A Store operation will store the state of slots, including
HELD
Channels.
HELD
channels are, however not
updated by the corresponding
RECALL
command - see below.
Store button indicator
The
Ergonomic Spread Store
button indicator is lit whenever the system is in

mode
