Merging Snapshot

SIDE NOTE:
The Tag Associated with any
Merged or Bounced Snapshot must
be manually set to RED in order for
that Snapshot to be saved as part of
the current Title. Otherwise it will
be available for recall, but it will not
be included in any Title Saves.
WARNING!:
Merging Snapshots that refer to
differing Cube bussing configura-
tions will produce indeterminite
results. Always attempt to maintain
a common bussing configuration to
ensure reliable performance

This feature requires a general understanding of how the current Title load
system operates. Typically, a Title load request first clears all 50 Snapshot
registers in the Mix Controller and then loads Snapshots from the incoming
Title into corresponding Snapshot registers.
By selecting a preference in the F10 System Menu it is now possible to defeat
the clearing of Snapshots before a Title load. The result is that the only time a
Snapshot register will be overwritten is when an incoming Title has data
requiring that same register number. (Example: Snapshot #1 would be over-
written only if an incoming Title contains a Snapshot that requires register #1)
Useful Applications:
Bouncing Snapshots Between Existing Titles
Useful Snapshots from one title can be bounced into a second, working title.
First, relocate the Snapshots within the source title by placing them into
unused registers relative to the working title. Next, load the working title.
When the Working Title loads it will not erase the relocated Snapshots
because the Working Title has no need to affect those registers (it has no
Snapshot information to put in them). The result is that the Working Title will
now include both it's own Snapshots and those that were "bounced"into it as
a single Snapshot List. This list can be managed to save the bounced Snap-
shots with the Working Title on the next Title save.
Merging Lists Between Titles
Useful Snapshots from various Titles can be condensed into a single Title.
Create a set of utility type Snapshots
Reserve a certain area of Snapshot registers for system use. . If no Title load
ever requires these registers, the Snapshots will remain there indefinitely.*
Typically the higher register numbers are used infrequently and could be used
to store these utility type Snapshots.
