and thus safe from solo) using the arrow keys on the keypad. Press the SET
soft button on the right side of the screen to change the state of the selected channel s solo safe setting.

New progress bar display of the SX-1 s busy state
It was previously possible to get into situations where the SX-1 was busy but gave little indication of
the fact, which some users thought was freezing. Now, you ll be able to tell when the SX-1 is doing
anything that might prevent you from using it momentarily.
This means that among others, all Undo and Redo commands, CD writing, and CD erasing now post
progress bars.
You might also notice that the progress bar itself now looks more like a revolving barber s pole —
or
for you folks outside of the U.S. - a revolving candy cane.

New MIDI operation at creation of New Mix
When a new Mix is created, and the Initialize Mixer option is selected, the MIDI banks return to
their default values. This does not include controller mappings.

A number of new mixer channel shortcuts were added
The SX-1 now supports a number of channel and bank-specific shortcuts from the surface, which will
allow you to quickly modify a number of channel and bank attributes.

Pressing and holding the Virtual Channel button will toggle the bypass-state of the selected
channel s eq. While toggling back and forth between bypassed and un-bypassed, you will notice
that the strip s encoders now indicate which state is active graphically:
For a channel whose eq is bypassed, the encoders will now show flat lines. When the eq is
activated, the ring encoders jump to their eq values. This makes it easy at a glance to see which
channels eq is bypassed and which are not.
