MIDI in Preview Mode
Incoming MIDI or MTC continues to trigger snapshot recall
while in Preview mode. However, MIDI messages stored to
snapshots are not sent out when a snapshot is recalled in Pre-
view mode. For more information, see "Adding MIDI Mes-
sages to Snapshots" on page 189 and "Adding Plug-In Data to
Snapshots" on page 190.
MTC and Other Online Event Triggers
While in Preview mode, triggers that occur in the online state
of the console are executed, including MTC-driven recall of
snapshots. Triggers caused by changes to the offline (Preview)
controls are ignored and do not cause events to occur. For
more information, see Chapter 22, "Events."
