Scene memory

Reference Manual

Using Preview mode

Preview mode lets you view or edit the settings of a scene stored in memory without affecting the signal

processing of the current scene. When you recall a scene in this mode, the settings of the newly recalled

scene will appear on the panel of the CL series console, but the signal processing of the current scene

will remain as it was prior to the recall. Even if you modify the settings and save them as a new scene

or by overwriting, the signal processing of the current scene will remain as it was prior to the recall.

During an actual performance, it can be convenient to use this to check the content of the scene you

intend to recall next, or to make minor changes to a scene and then store it.

1. Press the PREVIEW button on the panel or the PREVIEW button in the SCENE LIST

window.

The PREVIEW button will light, and the console will be in Preview mode.

In this state, operating controllers such as the knobs and faders will not affect the signal

processing of the current scene.

2. Use the SCENE MEMORY [INC]/[DEC] keys to select the scene number that you

want to recall.

3. Press the SCENE MEMORY [RECALL] key. To execute the Recall operation, press the

OK button.

The scene will be recalled. However, the internal signal processing of the current scene will

remain unchanged as it was prior to the Recall operation.

If desired, you can access a specific channel in the SELECTED CHANNEL section, or access a

specific screen in the display to examine the values in detail.

4. If desired, use the panel controls to edit the settings.

Operating a panel control in Preview mode will edit the settings of the scene you recalled in step

3, but will not affect the signal processing of the current scene.

5. If you want to store the changes you made in step 4, select the scene number in

which you want to store the scene, and press the SCENE MEMORY [STORE] key.

The settings you edited in step 4 will be stored into memory.

6. When you have finished viewing or editing the settings of the scene, press the

PREVIEW button of the panel or the PREVIEW button in the SCENE LIST window.

The PREVIEW button will go dark; the CL series console will exit Preview mode and return to

the normal state.

NOTE

PREVIEW mode applies to all parameters included in scene memory, all parameters included in

the INPUT PATCH and OUTPUT PATCH functions, and HA parameters.

Functions in Preview mode

The current scene will be modified by the following software and external operations.

•CL Editor

•Stage Mix

• MIDI Rx

•GPI IN

Similarly, edits for the current scene will be conveyed to the following software and external devices.

•CL Editor

•Stage Mix

• MIDI Tx

•GPI OUT

The meters will indicate the state of signal processing for the current scene.

Playback Link will operate for recalling the current scene.

If cascade-connected, both master and slave units will operate independently. Link will not occur while

in Preview mode.

The following functions will not operate in Preview mode.

• Synchronization with CL Editor

• Switching users

• Changing the User Level

• Load/Save functions
