Each component which is included in the automation can be protected globally, on a per-channel basis, or individually.
This is done in the Protection Mode page, accessed by pressing the Protect softkey.
When you update a previously stored Mix, three different data protection modes become available: Auto, Safe
and Manual.
Auto
(Red fader status LED) Automation data is replayed and can be over-written, either using the fader
touch sensor (motor faders on), or by pressing the fader status button.
Safe
(Green fader status LED) Existing fader and switch automation data can be protected with the Safe
option. When channels are in Safe, automation data is replayed but no data can be written to these
channels.
Manual (No fader status LED) Existing automation data is protected but not played back. The fader and
switches affect the audio in the normal way but movements will not be written to the automation.
Note that in a new mix, Safe mode is not available.
When the Protect screen is active, the lower row of softkeys become selection softkeys for the automatable
switches (Cut, EQ, Ins (insert), Cue and Fx1 to Fx4), and the top left softkey now displays SetFader (as shown
above). These nine softkeys select which controls will be affected by the FSM softkey and the fader status buttons
which are used to cycle through the available Protection Modes, on a global basis (FSM softkey) or on a per-channel
basis (the fader status buttons). In either case all the selected controls in the channel will be set to the displayed
mode.
For example, to set all of the faders and CUT switches to Safe mode, activate only the SetFader and Cut softkeys
and use the FSM softkey to cycle the Scribble Strip to Safe. Alternatively, to set the 'EQ In' switch on channel 1
to Auto mode, activate only the EQ softkey and press Channel 1's fader status button to cycle the Scribble Strip
to Auto.
When the Protect screen is active, all automated controls can be reset to the same mode by pressing and holding
the FSM softkey.
