Solo States and Modes when Loading Shows
Channel Solo States When you load a Show file, all solos are
cleared. Solo states are not saved with Show files.
Solo Mode Show files do not open in SIP mode. If you save a
Show file while in SIP, when you reopen the Show file, it will
open in AFL Solo mode.
Solo Operation Options
Momentary or Latching Switch Operation
Channel solo switches can operate with momentary or latch-
ing behavior.
To engage momentary solo on a channel:
Hold the solo switch for more than one second. Release the
solo switch to unsolo the channel.
To latch solo on a channel:
Press and release the solo switch. Press the switch a second
time to unsolo the channel.
Auxes/Variable Groups Follow AFL and AFL
Follows Auxes/Variable Groups
You can customize how encoder banking and AFL interact.
Auxes/Variable Groups Follow AFL
When the Auxes/Variable Groups Follow AFL option is selected,
soloing an Aux/Var Group bus by pressing its AFL switch as-
signs level and pan controls for that bus to the input encoders.
• With mono busses, level is assigned to the input encod-
ers. With stereo (linked) busses, level is assigned to the
encoders.
• When Flip to Faders is pressed, level is flipped to the fad-
ers and pan for the Aux/Var Group bus (even numbered
send) is automatically mapped to the input encoders.
The pan button flashes while this mode is enabled.
To set Auxes and Variable Groups to follow solo:
1 Go to the Options page and click the Busses tab.
2 Under Solo and Monitor Operation, select the Auxes/Variable
Groups Follow AFL option.
3 Solo an Aux output bus by pressing its AFL switch.
To cancel display of Aux send controls:
Unsolo the bus, or select any other parameter for the input
encoders.
AFL Follows Auxes/Variable Groups
When the AFL Follows Auxes/Variable Groups option is selected,
assigning encoders to an Aux/Var Group automatically soloes
that bus. The AFL Follows Auxes setting is stored and recalled
with each Show file. By default, the option is off (not selected).
To set AFL to follow Aux encoder assignment:
1 Go to the Options > Busses tab and select the AFL Follows
Auxes/Variable Groups option.
2 In the Input section, assign encoders to an Aux Send bus.
To cancel (unsolo) in AFL Follows Auxes mode:
Press the flashing Solo Clear button
Auto Cancel and Input Priority
The Auto Cancel option determines whether Solo switches can-
cel other soloed channels or are additive (latching). Input Pri-
ority determines whether or not soloed inputs replace soloed
outputs on the AFL/PFL Solo bus.
To set Solo switch operation:
1 Go to the Options page and click the Busses tab.
2 Under Solo and Monitor Operations, select the options in any
of the following combinations:
Auto Cancel On, Input Priority Off A solo cancels all other solos
(inputs and outputs)
Auto Cancel On, Input Priority On An input solo cancels all
other soloed inputs; an output solo cancels all other output
solos; soloed inputs temporarily replace soloed outputs
Auto Cancel Off, Input Priority Off Solos are additive, and so-
loed inputs and outputs are heard together
Auto Cancel Off, Input Priority On Solos are additive, and so-
loed inputs temporarily replace soloed outputs.
If the encoders were already flipped to the faders, flipped
status is maintained when an Aux bus is soloed.
Solo and Monitor Operation settings in the Options > Busses page.
The Events List can be used to assign the Solo Clear func-
tion to a footswitch or any other available trigger.
