AUTOMATION
Pressing AUTOMATION shows this screen:
Down the right are the various automation parameters that can be set. They are:
RECORD EVENTS
NOTE: Even though this parameter is labelled 'FX/AUX SEND, in the case where one or other (or both) of the
FX/AUX sends are configured as 'stereo' sends, the 'pan' movement of FX/AUX2 and FX/AUX4 is recorded in
the automation.
RECORD MODE
74
Allows you to choose which events will be recorded. The options are:
ALL All controls will be recorded
FX/AUX SEND Only FX/AUX send control movements will be recorded.
CHANNEL ON Only CHANNEL ON switching will be recorded.
PAN Only pan control movements will be recorded.
FADER Only fader movements will be recorded.
The default is for ALL events to be recorded but this may not be appropriate in some
circumstances. For example, you may want to record a pass of CHANNEL ON switch-
ing - to reduce the risk of accidentally catching a fader and moving it, you could set the
RECORD EVENTS to CHANNEL ON so that only this switching will
be recorded.
This allows you to select from three automation record modes:
OFF Automation data will not be recorded.
AUTO DROP Because of the faders' touch sensitivity, fad ers will be dropped
into record as soon as they are touched (they do not have to be
moved).
