VCA / Channel Mute Mode

Document generated: 18.04.17
In the Cue List, the upper TC window in the configuration area displays
the TC at which the cue will be fired "Trigger Time incl. offset". The lower
window "w/o offset" shows the original TC – the TC value as it was without
the introduced offset.
TimeCode events can be deleted from cues as other events – by right-clicking
on to the event icon and clicking onto "Delete event".
A snapshot includes all audio parameters of the console by definition. This
means that the sound designer would have to specify for each cue what audio
parameters should be masked from snapshot recall, so that only certain param-
eters change. In most cases however, making changes of VCA assignments,
VCA labels, and channel mute status per cue is preferred, rather than working
with snapshots in the 'normal' sense. Aside from this, the desk has to work in
a manual way whereby the operator is not concerned with snapshot recall but
only with changes of certain parameters within certain cues. The theatre cue
list offers a philosophy that does not only deal with snapshots and attached
recall masks per cue, but offers that the snapshots of the VCA/mute and other
parameter changes are handled per cue by a library system that stores the
parameters.
Please note that the VCA assignment and channel mute parameters are neither
saved nor overwritten by snapshots.
This functionality is enabled in the D950system.ini file by the system
administrator ([options] - TheatreMode=Yes).
