INTRODUCTION

The Copy/Paste function allows the settings of any channel, bus, FX section or processing element to be
copied and pasted to any number of other channels, saving set up time and helping eliminate errors. The
last paste operation can be quickly reversed with an UNDO function. Processing blocks (eg EQ) or even
individual parameters (eg mic gain control) within a processing block are selected for copying via touch
screen selection on the same Vistonics screens that are used for audio control functions.
A range of channels or busses can also be easily copied and pasted to another area of the desk.
The Library functionality allows you to select any set of parameters in use on the desk, ranging from a
single channel's EQ setting, to a range of channels set up for a drum kit, to be stored in the internal library
and recalled at will. The libraries can be exported to, or imported from, the USB memory stick, allowing you
to build up your own portable channel and processing element libraries that can easily be transferred to
any Vi console you need to work on.
This is done independently of the Show Files which allow entire desk settings to be exported.
The console's default Library includes a selection of factory default library items for a number of common
sources, plus a set of 'Flat' channels and processing elements which can be used for resetting areas of the
console to default state when it is not desirable to reload a complete Default Show.
If the console is in either copy or paste mode a yellow bar appears across all the Input Screen
areas and the console switches into 'Copy/Paste' mode, where the surface is used for selection.
Note that in these modes control of channel strip audio from the Vistonics™ screen is not
possible!

CONSOLE CONTROL KEYS

The EDIT keys on the control surface are used to initiate COPY and PASTE modes.
[Copy] mode is used for source selection.
[Paste] mode is used for destination selection.
[UNDO] can be pressed after a PASTE operation to restore the previous settings. If you wish to do this note
that [UNDO] must be pressed before PASTE is switched off.
