Basic Manual Control 153
[1] [Thru] [1][2]{Chan Per Group} [3] {Jump} [1] [Enter] would create these 3 subgroups of
3 channels each: (1,2,3) (5,6,7) (9,10,11). Channels 4, 8, and 12 will be jumped over and
will not be in the subgroups.
Select Channels From the Direct Selects
Direct selects provide one-touch selection of channels, groups, palettes, presets, effects and
macros. You can configure an array of channels on direct select that display with paging buttons
provided for easy scrolling. See
Using Direct Selects (on page53)
Open a direct select display by select {DS} from the Home Screen and then select the {Channels}
button. When channels are posted to the direct selects, you can select one simply by pressing
the channel’s touchbutton. The command line will show the appropriate channel and the
selected direct select will be outlined in yellow.
Channel selection from the direct selects is an additive process. When a channel is selected, it is
added to the current selection set. To select only one channel and deselect all others, double-
press the channel touchbutton.
Example:
If channels [1] [Thru] [5] are selected from the keypad, pressing {Channel 6} from
the direct selects adds channel 6 to the current channel selection.
If channels [1] [Thru] [5] are selected from the keypad, pressing {Channel 6}
{Channel 6} deselects channels 1 through 5 and selects channel 6.
The following examples illustrate the various methods of selecting channels using the direct
selects:
{Channel 1} - adds channel 1 to the currently selected channels, if not currently selected.
This is similar to pressing [+] [1] [Enter] from the keypad. However if channel 1 were
currently selected when you pressed {Channel 1}, this would deselect channel 1 from the
channel selection.
{Channel 5} {Channel 6} - adds channels 5 and 6 to the current channel selection.
This is similar to pressing [+] [5 [+] [6] [Enter] from the keypad.
{Channel 5} {Channel 5} - selects channel 5 and deselects all other channels.
This is similar to pressing [5] [Enter] on the keypad, when the previous instruction is
terminated.
Deselecting Channels
Channels are deselected when any action is taken on the keypad that is unrelated to manual
control, such as recording groups and cues, or updating a record target, etc. You can also press
[Clear] after a terminated command line to clear the channel selection.
