Parameter link / Component link
 What are Parameter Link and Component Link?
Parameters of the same type (controls of a component) can be grouped to link their parameters. This is called
“parameter link.” When you edit one of the parameters in a parameter link group, the other parameters of the
same parameter link group will change in the same way.
In the same way as when using the Parameter Link function, parameters can also be linked between groups of
components of the same type. This is called “component link.”
Since Parameter link and Component link each allow two types of linking (Global link and Local link), there are
a total of four types of linking. Global link will link the parameters/components of the amplifiers in a workspace;
Local link will link the parameters/components of a single amplifier. Global link applies only within Amp Editor,
while Local link also applies to panel operations of the amplifier itself.
Parameter link groups can be created or parameters can be added to a group in the component editor or in a cus-
tom control panel. The “Parameter Link” dialog box lets you view or edit the status of Parameter link or Compo-
nent link.
 Features of Global Link / Local Link
The features and uses of Global Link and Local Link are described below.
 Global link
This type of link operates on multiple amplifiers within a workspace.
• Use this when you want to use Amp Editor to perform centralized monitoring and control of numerous
amplifiers, such as in a large installation.
• Linking will operate only when the units are being controlled from Amp Editor. Do not link if you want
to operate the amplifiers from their own panel or if you want to remotely control them from an external
device.
• Link settings are saved within a project; they cannot be switched for individual scenes.
 Local link
This type of link operates only within a single amplifier.
• Use this in cases such as when you want channels A/B to remain stereo-linked.
• Parameters will remain linked whether they are operated from Amp Editor, from the amplifier’s own
panel, or remotely from an external device.
• Link settings are saved within scene memory, so they can be switched between individual scenes.
