14.4.2: Global Filter - Snapshot & Show Isolation
Isolate [ISO]
Select channels, groups 
of channels, and 
parameter blocks, and 
individual parameters 
to be part of the Global 
Filter.
To quickly Isolate a whole channel or bus from the snapshot recall, press its [ISO] button. 
The channel strip border on the Vistonics screen changes to purple to indicate the 'All 
Isolated' state. To quickly isolate groups of channels or busses, the Gang function can be 
used.
To isolate parts of a channel or buss you can use either the [ISO] button, or put the whole 
desk into Global Edit mode.
With an [ISO] button held, simultaneously touch the part of the channel strip that you want 
to isolate, in the touch screen. A purple LED appears in the top corner of the block to 
indicate that the block is isolated. To isolate an individual parameter, touch the Vistonics 
controls for the parameters you want to isolate. You can either zoom into the function block 
before selection, so the parameters within that block are already mapped onto the VST 
area, or touch and hold a screen block as well as the [ISO] button  - that will zoom into the 
parameters for the block.

When set to YES the console ISO settings will be

this to NO to protect isolated sections of the console

To get manual control back while in a sequence of cues - either of a whole channel, groups of channels, or an element 
within a channel, you can use Global Filtering. The console [ISO] buttons are the main tools for this. Once a parameter 
is isolated, that parameter will remain under manual control regardless of which desk snapshot is recalled – hence the 
term Global lter; however, controls that are isolated can still be stored, so you can update snapshots with the manu-
ally adjusted changes at any time.
To isolate channels, busses, or parts of channels and busses you can use either the [ISO] button, or put the whole 
desk into Global Edit mode.
The Global edit lter (LOAD ISO WITH SHOW) can also be used to isolate aspects of the console’s set-up from entire 
Show loads. So for example, if you have an engineer who brings a pre-congured show le to a shared console at a 
festival, you can isolate the console’s output settings, which would normally be congured specically for the venue, 
and protect them from being over-written by the new Show le.
The Global Edit button puts the whole desk into Edit mode so you don’t have to hold the [ISO] button.
