Channel Safes
In addition to the current show and snapshots, the shows view also houses the channel safe buttons.
Engaged selections will be removed from snapshot recall, leaving the corresponding channels
or outputs unchanged. These will illuminate green when engaged and are gray when disengaged.
The following are available for channel safes:
• Channel inputs
• Returns [DL32R]
• iPad [DL1608 / DL806]
• Reverb [Controls reverb send and return]
• Delay [Controls delay send and return]
• Main LR
• Aux sends
• Subgroups
• VCAs
• Matrix [DL32R]
When recalling a snapshot (including snapshot 0 - Default), the Master Fader app will not change any
parameters on safe channels. Channel safe settings are global and applied to all snapshots in the show.
They are saved and recalled with the show and recalled via power cycle.
Channel safes will still be individually touchable for each channel and output regardless of linked state.
Linking or unlinking channels does not change the safe button states. If either channel of a linked pair
is marked safe in the shows screen, both will be treated as safe and not aected by the snapshot recall.
Similarly, when recalling a snapshot that unlinks the pair of channels, both will be treated as safe and
not aected by the recall. So if you get it wrong no harm no foul; simply mark both as safe or neither
of the channels as safe and recall again.
Step 8 — Setting channel safes:
Let’s give it a shot to understand how this functions a little better.
A common scenario for using channel safes is on outputs. This way, the settings on all input channels
will recall, but the output settings [assignments, parametric EQ, graphic EQ and output compressor /
delay] will not. Select all outputs (as seen in the image below).
Now that we’ve set channel safes, go ahead and recall the snapshots again [step 7, two pages ago].
There should now be no changes to the output settings when recalling any of the snapshots
(assuming, of course, that you made changes to the outputs when creating the snapshots [step 5,
three pages back]).
