How To …
In this chapter we will step through a number of common uses for a Xynergi Media Production
Center.
Note: these sequences are available through the
Xplain system on the Xynergi Tactile
Controller. When you learn through Xplain, it highlights, in most cases, the next button that you
need to press. This makes it easier for you to remember where the keys are.
Note: most of these sequences require a project to be loaded. There is a demo project available
on your Xyerngi installation CD. Instructions for installing it are included in the Xynergi Installation
Manual, chapter 4, page 20. Instructions for loading it can be found in this manual on page 75. It
will be assumed in all these sequences that you have loaded a project.
Basics
Selecting Paths
Overview
Xynergi supports many "signal paths" including track feeds, live feeds and buses.
Feeds are the individual channels that are routed to the mix buses.
Track contains clips, i.e. edits of recorded audio. You can record directly into tracks.
Live audio entering the system from a physical input, in real time.
Bus mix destination. Includes Main, Sub-Buses, Auxes, MTs (multi track buses)
Each feed and each bus element plays one stream of audio. Editing and mixing operations are
performed on the selected path(s).
Get Ready
Press the Editor Megamode button.
Press the
Cut button.
How to Select
The top 12 picture keys show the names of 12 signal paths. Press one or more buttons to select
them.
Press the
Bank Up and Bank Down buttons to show another 12.
You can select many paths. Try the following shortcuts:
To select just one path, double-press its button.
To select a range of paths, hold one button down and double-press another.
The Current Path
The last path you press is special. It is called the “current path” and is shown in the Pad and the
Mixer Screen Fat Channel. All mixing operations are directed at this channel.
The Current Track
If the current path is a Track, its name is shown in Blue on the Edit screen. It is then called the
“current track” Some special editing commands are directed at it alone.
