Automation Scope

Scope is used to determine whether or not a control can have its automation mode changed by the Master
Automation controls.
The current Automation Scope is part of the Mix/Pass. If no other actions have or would cause a Record Pass to
be created then changing Automation Scope creates a Record Pass (when the system goes into Play or if it is
already in Play). Changes to Automation Scope are not saved unless the Record Pass is saved.
Fader, Cut and Desk Scope
Any control that is not in Isolate is in Scope unless the DESK AUTO, CUT AUTO or FADER AUTO keys have been
toggled off.

To toggle Faders in and out of control Scope press the FADER AUTO key. Faders (not in Isolate) are in Scope if
the LED above the key is illuminated.
To toggle CUT keys in and out of control Scope press the CUT AUTO key. CUT keys (not in Isolate) are in Scope if
the LED above the key is illuminated.
To toggle all other controls in paths in and out of control Scope press the DESK AUTO key. Controls not in
Isolate will be in Scope when the LED above the DESK AUTO key is illuminated.
Putting Controls in Scope
To place all controls in Scope (including those in Isolate) press and hold the ALL/SCOPE key then press the
Master Automation key(s) for the required Automation Mode. All controls will be put into the selected
Automation Mode.
If any of the DESK AUTO, CUT AUTO or FADER AUTO keys have been toggled off then the appropriate set of
controls will be unaffected.
Release the ALL/SCOPE key. If a Trim mode is selected, only the Faders will have their Automation Mode
changed.
Now use the Master REC, PLAY, TRIM and GLIDE keys to change the Mode of controls in Scope (i.e. without
using the ALL/SCOPE key as well).
If the Master ISOL key is pressed then all controls in scope will be Isolated and taken out of scope.
To place controls in a path in Scope without changing the Automation Mode toggle the state of the DESK AUTO,
CUT AUTO and FADER AUTO keys as required.
Press and hold the ALL/SCOPE key then press the required ACCESS key. All controls in the path will be put in
Automation Scope, except those excluded by the DESK AUTO, CUT AUTO and FADER AUTO keys.
The current Automation Modes of controls will remain unaffected. Release the ALL/SCOPE key.
The ACCESS keys for as many paths as necessary can be pressed while the ALL/SCOPE key is held down.
To remove individual Faders or CUT keys from Scope isolate the control by turning off the Automation Mode,
e.g. If a Fader is in Lock Record, press the REC key to turn off Lock Record and Isolate the control.
To remove all controls from Scope and Isolate them press and hold the ALL/SCOPE key and press the ISOL key.
