Managing Snapshots - DigiDesign D-show Manual

Recalling the Entire Contents of Snapshots
Instead of applying the currently displayed scope to each re-
called snapshot, you can choose to have the scope change to
include the content of each snapshot when it is recalled.
To recall the entire contents of each snapshot:
Click the Scope Follows button in the Snapshots command
1
section so that it is highlighted.
Click the snapshot name in the Snapshot list, or turn the Se-

lect knob in the ACS to target the snapshot you want to recall.
The scope of the snapshot is displayed on the Data Type but-
tons and faders.
Click the Recall button on-screen, or press the Recall switch
3
in the ACS.
Recalling Successive Snapshots Instantly
You can instantly recall successive snapshots in the Snapshots
list. This command references the previously recalled snap-
shot, not the last targeted snapshot.
To instantly recall successive snapshots, do one of the following:
Click the Recall Previous (–) or Recall Next (+) button at the
top of the Snapshots list.
– or –
Press the Previous or Next switch in the ACS section.
The Snapshot Recall buttons combine target and recall
actions in one step, causing the previous or next snapshot
to be instantly active. These buttons cannot be used to
preview snapshots before recalling them.

Managing Snapshots

Storing Snapshots
You can modify the contents of an existing snapshot, over-
writing it with new settings, using the Store command. It is
not necessarily to recall a snapshot to store it. Snapshots can
be stored from on-screen or from the snapshot controls in the
ACS section of the console. You can undo Store commands.
To store the current console state in an existing snapshot:
Set all parameters on the console you want to store in the
1
snapshot.

• For each parameter you want to store in the snapshot,

scoped (displayed in red).
• For each channel you want to store in the snapshot, click
the channel so that it is scoped (displayed in red).
Select the snapshots in the on-screen Snapshot list, or turn
3
the Select knob in the ACS to target a snapshot you want to
overwrite.
Click the Store button on-screen, or press the Store switch in

the ACS section.
Clearing Snapshots
The contents of a snapshot can be cleared while keeping the

tion. This lets you maintain a placeholder that you can use
later to store new data. You can undo Clear commands.
