Presets; Previewing And Recalling A Preset - Extron electronics DMP 128 User Manual

Presets

Presets recall a group of frequently used settings. Presets created by DSP Configurator
can contain all elements (gain blocks, processor blocks, and mix-points) or a portion of
the elements available within the program. In Emulate mode, up to 32 partial presets
can be created, then uploaded as a set and stored to the device or stored to disk as a
configuration file. In Live mode, presets can be created one at a time from the current
state. They can be saved to a chosen preset number in the device, with the option to
name or rename, or save to disk.
When recalled, a preset overwrites only elements contained in the preset. Presets are
useful when settings for a particular room or only certain elements of a configuration need
to be changed regularly.
Presets can be created in Live or Emulate modes. In Emulate mode, presets are
created, saved to a file, then pushed to the DMP 128 when connecting in Live mode.
When a pull data synchronization method is performed, preset data remains in the
DMP 128, with only the list of preset names pulled from the device. Presets in this state
are marked with an asterisk until that preset is recalled (which pulls the preset data from
the device), or until a backup is performed (see
from the device cannot be saved to disk until they have been recalled, at which time the
preset data is pulled into the DSP Configurator. Presets with no asterisk can be saved to
disk.
Saved presets can be recalled via the DSP Configurator, or a control system sending an
SIS preset recall command. Presets may also be saved and recalled via the embedded
web page. Presets saved via the web page contain input gain, output volume, and the
output mix-point settings.

Previewing and recalling a Preset

A preset can be previewed in either Live or Emulate mode by selecting the preset from
the preset drop-down list.
The program indicates a view-only preset configuration by displaying each preset element
with a translucent green mask over the block.
Figure 59.
Behavior for previewing and applying presets is as follows:
•
•
Preset Preview
Live mode – After selecting a preset, DSP Configurator displays the preset elements
that are affected by a preset recall with a translucent mask over the element, and
leaves all other DSP Configurator elements unaltered. Elements without a translucent
mask represent elements in the current state that are unaffected by a preset recall.
Real-time changes to the current state are not reflected while previewing a preset,
and the user cannot alter those elements. To apply the preset, click Recall. The
preset reverts to Current State.
Emulate mode – After selecting a preset from the list, DSP Configurator displays the
elements affected by a preset recall with a green translucent mask, leaving all other
elements (which represent the current emulation) unaltered. Click Recall to apply
the viewed preset to the current emulation. The preset number reverts to Current
Emulation.
