Basic Manual Control 157
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.
For 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 cur-
rently 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 ter-
minated.
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.
Note: [Select Last] is a fast way to regain your last channel selection. See Select Last (on
page182)
Any manual control action taken while record or update is on the command line will automatically
reselect your last channel selection.
Setting Intensity
Channel intensity may be manually entered from the keypad, set with an intensity palette (if pro-
grammed) or set with the level wheel. Pressing [At] after channel selection assumes an intensity value
will be added to the selected channels. You may also use the [Full] button to bring the selected chan-
nels to their full intensity or you may use the [Out] button to fade the intensity out.
Use the [Level], [+%], and [-%] keys to affect the intensity value of selected channels. Each of these
keys are set at a specific value established in the Setup (Manual Control (on page144)).
[Level] is set by default to full (100% intensity).
[+%] and [-%] are each set by default value of 10 points.
The following examples illustrate the various methods of setting intensity:
