Copying certain audio settings across the console is made very fast and easy:
Each channel strip hosts copy/paste keys dedicated to a certain audio func-
tion, as EQ, dynamics, etc. Pressing one of these keys will make it fully lit,
while all possible destination channels (channels that also have this same
audio function) will show up half-lit. Selecting anyone of them will paste the
value into that channel. It is possible to paste a value to multiple channels
with the help of the MULTI SEL key or by creating a gang. However, there is
a shortcut to paste a value to multiple channels located next to each other:
Press and hold the  (Copy/Paste) key of the first channel while pressing
the  (Copy/Paste) key on the last channel. This will paste the value to all
channels in between.
There is also a special  A (Copy/Paste All) key to copy a whole channel
including bus assignment, as well as a (Undo/Redo) key to undo the last
paste or clear function on each channel separately. Pressing this key after an
undo operation again will redo the last copy.
Note The (Undo/Redo) key can be used momentarily (long press) in order to
compare settings on a channel:
1 Press the  (Copy/Paste) key twice in order to 'memorize' the current
setting (i.e., by pasting it to itself)
2 Adjust the audio function to an alternative setting
3 Press (Undo/Redo) multiple times (either short or long) in order to
compare the two settings.
it will illuminate all possible keys by half. This is a guide for the user – so
he can select one of these keys, or reverse the function by pressing the first
(fully lit) key again. A timeout applies if none of the half-lit keys are pressed
within a given time frame. Timeout duration is adjustable in the "Vista Desk
Settings" menu on the GC.
