Display when not correctly patched
When the box containing the number of assignments for the applicable port is red or yellow, patching to the port is
not yet enabled.
The status is color-coded. Red: Not Available/Used, Yellow: Not Active
・Not Available
The port is not available because the number of ports is limited due to the sampling rate setting for the card. If you
try to patch this port under this status, patching will not be enabled, and the box will remain red.
・Used
Another DSP engine has already been patched to this port. If you try to patch to this port under this status, the
“Change output patch?” dialog box appears. Touch OK to “steal” a patch from the other DSP engine, and the patch
will be enabled. At this time, the red box disappears, indicating that the patch is now enabled. On the other hand, if
the currently-used patch is “stolen” by another DSP engine and becomes disabled, the red box will appear, indicating
that the patch is being used. However, the button in the patch grid will remain white, indicating that the port is
patched. If you remove the patches and then redo the patches again, the patches will be enabled. However, use
caution when removing the patches, as you might remove patches used by other engines as well.
・Not Active
The port was once patched from another DSP engine, but then the patch was canceled. The button in the patch grid
will stay in white, indicating that the port is patched. To enable patching, you must remove and then redo the patch.
NOTE
(
When there is a patching conflict, PORT IDENTIFY on the I/O rack will be disabled. Also, the message shown below will be shown at
the bottom of the screen in yellow.
(
“PORT IDENTIFY not available! This channel is not currently patched to an Output Port.”
