Strip Setup

4-82 GC Operation
The Strip setup page can be called up in three different ways:
• From the Page menu
• Using the Page Icons
• Using the STRIP SETUP function key in the Control Bay of the Vista sur-
face.
The Strip Setup page has a number of functions. Primarily, the 'Strip Setup'
window allows the user to assign DSP Channels onto the Vista surface. It
also, however, gives a very good overview of the console and may be used
during general operation of the console to help the user navigate around the
console.
Please refer to chapter 2.4.16 for information on navigation philosophy.
The 'Strip Setup' page (see below) provides a representation of the six sec-
tions of the Vista 'virtual surface'. Although the concept of navigation is
based on scrolling in a horizontal plane, the representation of the six sections
is displayed in a vertical plane because of the logistics of screen space. The
navigation system allows the user to decide which area of the virtual console
the Control Surface will represent. The number of bays within a section will
automatically be identical to the number of physical bays of the control sur-
face. In the example shown below, the Control Surface will have five fader
bays – a total of 50 faders. The total number of virtual channel strips available
to represent DSP channels is 6 x 50 = 300 in this example.
