About snaps
A snap is a snapshot of the playbacks’ loads and state (on or off). Dlite stores up to 72 snaps. Trig-
gering a snap loads the playbacks and the crossfader with the contents of the snap. There are three
trigger modes for snaps.
There is always an active snap. The active snap’s number is displayed in the
Page/Mode display.
Each time a scene, chase, or QList is loaded to a playback the new information is added to the
active snap.
When opening a new show, snap 1 is automatically active. When you begin programming a new
show all scenes and chases loaded on the playbacks are automatically stored as snap 1. When
loading a show, the contents in snap 1 is automatically loaded to the playbacks.
