Playing back an audio file in tandem with scene recall
(PLAYBACK LINK)
You can specify an audio file that will be played back from a USB flash drive when a specific scene is recalled.
This can be convenient if you want a sound effect or background music to be played automatically for a
specific scene. Follow the steps below to link a scene recall with audio file playback.
NOTE
(
Audio files to be played should be saved in the SONGS folder inside the YPE folder. If you save them in the root directory or in other
folders, you will be unable to specify them for playback. When an audio file is played, the path in the TITLE LIST screen will indicate
\YPE\SONGS\.
(
You cannot play audio files during recording or in recording standby mode.
(
A specified audio file will be played back only once, regardless of the playback mode settings.
(
A specified file is recognized by a file name with a maximum of 64 characters, plus three extension characters. If you change the file
name after specifying the file for playback, or if you delete or copy the file repeatedly, the specified file may become
unrecognizable in rare cases.
(
You can only link audio files of the control surface whose CONSOLE ID=1.
