Using Groups 205
If new channels are added to an ordered group using an update command, those channels are added
to the end of the channel list from an ordering perspective.
When a group is previewed using the Group List, the display defaults to showing the ordered view.
Channels can be reordered as needed from this list. Use the [Format] key to change to a numeric list-
ing of channels.
For Example:
[1] [0] [Thru] [2] [Record] [Group] [1] [Enter]
This will record channels 10 through 2 to Group 1, and then if you select the group you can
cycle through the channels using [Next] starting with 10, then 9, then 8, and so on.
The following softkeys are available:
{Insert Before} - use to insert a new channel after the specified channel within a group.
{Insert After} - use to insert a new channel before the specified channel within a group.
{Reverse} - use to place a group's channels in reverse order.
{Random} - use to place a group's channels in a random order.
{Reorder} - use {Reorder} to rearrange the channels to numeric order in a group.
{Offset} - See Offset (on the next page) for more information.
Subgroups
You can create subsets of channels within a group by using [Shift] & [/]. [Shift] & [/] to create par-
entheses. The subgroups will display within those parentheses.
These subsets of channels or subgroups are treated as a single channel in the following ways:
When applying absolute or relative effects from live, the subgroups are treated as a single
channel by the effect.
When setting a range of step's channels on a step based effect, the subgroup will not be
spread out amongst multiple steps.
When the group is selected and next/last is pressed, each subgroup is traversed.
When a group has subgroups, {Reverse}, {Reorder}, and {Random} in the group editor will
affect the subgroups instead of the channels in each subgroup. {Reorder} will order the
groups based on the first channel in each group.
Subgroups can be created either in the group list or Live.
To create a subgroup in Live:
[Shift] & [/] [1] [Thru] [4] [Shift] & [/] [Record] [Group] [2] [Enter]
To create a subgroup in the group list index:
