View Groups –
View groups allow you to see only the channels that you want to view, hiding the rest.
This improves organization and allows for faster navigation.
The DL32R has six view groups, while the DL1608 and DL806 have four view groups each.
Let’s take a look at a couple of examples.
Example One: A singer-songwriter is playing at the local coee shop. In all
likelihood, 3-4 inputs are probably the maximum amount of channels needed.
Wouldn’t it be great to hide the unused channels, showing only the channels in
use? The answer is a resounding “YES, of course it would!” Plus, the FX returns
would be in view with the selected channel strips...no more swiping back and
forth! Simply assign those channels to a view group and engage that view group
button. Here’s how:
Step 1 — Open the view group selector:
Assigning channels to view groups
starts in the selector strip, so you’ll need to head here rst. Tap anywhere in the
view groups selector, as outlined in the image to the left. Doing so displays a
popover similar to what’s seen below left. View groups (including the default,
“All”) illuminate when selected.
As one might expect, if Multi-Select is enabled [as indicated with a P], multiple
view groups may be selected. As such, if Multi-Select is disabled [as indicated
with no P], only a single view group may be selected.
I like to spell things out whenever possible – especially if it happens to be
my favorite card in the deck – so we’ll go with every other letter for the view
groups. Tap view group letters A, C and E
to see them illuminate. [Simply
tapping a view group again unassigns the view group].
Tapping anywhere in the mixer view or channel view will close the view group
popover. Now take a look at the view groups on the selector strip; view groups
A, C and E are illuminated in green.
This is great, save for one thing...nothing’s been assigned to these view
groups! In fact, you may have noticed that the mixer view is just a blank,
black screen...none more black. Lucky for us, near the bottom of the view
group selector is an option to assign view groups...that’s what we want!
Open the view group selector again by tapping anywhere in the view
group selector.
