Flip Mode Applications - DigiDesign Control 24 Manual

You can exit Flip mode at any time and return to
normal operation by pressing the flashing FLIP
switch. This action will return Control|24 to the
state it was in prior to entering Flip. The FLIP
switch LED will extinguish when the mode is
exited.
Pro Tools preferences for Send Mute and
send level follows mix groups.
Muting Sends

Flip Mode Applications

Cue/headphone mixes These are often built us-
ing one or more send busses. In practical use, es-
pecially during tracking, engineers must fre-
quently switch back and forth between their
control room mix and one or more (discrete)
cue or headphone mixes to satisfy requests from
talent during the recording process. By enabling
Flip mode for the cue mix send, levels in the
headphones can be adjusted quickly using the
faders. All Flip mode controls are fully automat-
able for even greater control over submixes.
Submixes
Complex paths can be built using multiple send
busses, Auxiliary Inputs and Master Faders. The
channel send levels, that determine the mix
heard in each submix, can be quickly set from
the faders using Flip mode. Complex automa-
tion is greatly simplified through the use of
Send Flip mode.
