It is possible to de-activate an existing filter in order to re-activate it at a later
point. Click on the corresponding icon in the toolbar to activate/de-activate the
current snapshot filter, or press the MIX ON key on the Automation panel.
If the snapshot filter is de-activated, the icon for entering the snapshot filter
edit mode is grayed-out and not accessible.
It is also possible to put elements into Trim mode. In that mode, you may
have recalled a snapshot and make some corrections (e.g. push the fader up by
some dB). This change will then be applied to all following snapshots when
recalling them. This feature is very handy if you have prepared a performance
and need to correct some levels when the show really starts. Obviously it is
good to have that correction applied to all snapshots of the show.
Note: When going back to Read mode, the elements will jump back to the original
snapshot value.
In order to activate the Trim mode as a third possible status of the elements,
the Enable Trim Mode option must be activated in the Snapshot Automation
Options window. Then the snapshot filter will not only contain two (Read and
Isolate) but three modes: Read, Isolate, and Trim. Switches cannot go into
Trim mode, therefore their indication is not different (yellow 'I'). However,
the rotary controllers and faders will toggle between 'Read', yellow 'I' for
'Isolate' and red 'T' for 'Trim'.
Presets are exactly the same as Snapshots. However, they normally can only
be recalled but not edited; so their main purpose is to represent – as the name
implies – a number of starting console setups that can be recalled, used to
build particular refinements from there, and then saved as normal Snapshot
files.
To access Presets from the Snapshot Page, click on the Presets tag. Presets
are saved with the Session Configuration, because it is assumed that they may
be valid for more than one Title.

If the System Administration mode (refer to chapter 4.7) is activated (by ente-
ring the appropriate System Administrator password), Presets can be edited
exactly in the same way as Snapshots.
