Chapter 20: Scenes And Shows (Automation)
PRO6 Live Audio System
Owner’s Manual
Scene contents
A scene contains all of the control centre settings that existed at the point of creation,
except:
• Anything that is explicitly taken out of store or recall using the automation scope
controls.
• All solo, monitor and comms section controls.
• All surface selection or navigational control settings.
Additionally, each scene can contain:
• Scene information, including name and notes.
• Event (MIDI/GPIO/internal).
Point scenes
For every scene there are 10 point scenes available, and each point scene has another
10 point scenes. Point scenes are the same as scenes. They allow each scene to be
divided into smaller sections.
Numbering and navigation
As scenes need to be recalled in sequence, each scene requires a sequential number.
So, although there is a maximum of 1000 scenes, the range of scene numbers is much
greater to allow for gaps to be left for adding scenes without having to renumber the
subsequent scenes — a major requirement in scripted shows. To facilitate this, each
scene has an associated four-digit, two-decimal place scene number, giving a possible
99 point scenes per main scene. The scene number locates the scene in the sequence
of stored scenes and is the basis of scene navigation.
To navigate the scenes, the jogwheel on the control surface goes beyond the scope of
the one-step automation buttons (last, now and next) by allowing you to scroll quickly
from one scene to the next. Identification of current scene position is shown by the
yellow background strip. The next and previous scenes are similarly highlighted, but by
green and red, respectively.
Global scene
The GLOBAL scene, which is always at the beginning of the scene cue list, lets you
create events that will be included in every scene. Global events are created just as
you would for any other scene. Events of a similar type in other scenes will override the
global ones.
Initial snapshot scene (scene 0)
All scene numbers are available for storing scenes except scene 0, which is called the
“safe” scene. This scene is the control centre’s initial snapshot scene, and is created by
the control centre and cannot be overwritten by the user. It is the only snapshot
existing when the show is stopped or when the user subsequently clears the control
centre down.
When recalled, it sets the control centre — regardless of scope settings — to a safe
state in which it is not passing any audio. The settings include:
• All mutes off.
• Gains are set to 0dB.
