Owner’s Manual
For details of how to recall a scene and create a new scene from the currently selected
one, see “Managing the scenes” on page 84.
Scene contents
A scene contains all of the control centre settings that existed at the point of creation,
except:
• Anything that is explicitly taken out of store or recall using the automation scope
controls.
• All solo, monitor and comms section controls.
• All surface selection or navigational control settings.
Additionally, each scene can contain:
• Scene information, including name and notes.
• Events — MIDI, GPIO, internal and crossfades.
Point scenes
For every scene there are 10 point scenes available, and each point scene has another
10 point scenes. Point scenes are the same as scenes. They allow each scene to be
divided into smaller sections.
Numbering and navigation
As scenes need to be recalled in sequence, each scene requires a sequential number.
So, although there is a maximum of 1000 scenes, the range of scene numbers is much
greater to allow for gaps to be left for adding scenes without having to renumber the
subsequent scenes — a major requirement in scripted shows. To facilitate this, each
scene has an associated four-digit, two-decimal place scene number, giving a possible
99 point scenes per main scene. The scene number locates the scene in the sequence
of stored scenes and is the basis of scene navigation.
Initial snapshot scene (scene 0)
All scene numbers are available for storing scenes except scene 0, which is called the
“safe” scene. This scene is the control centre’s initial snapshot scene, which cannot be
overwritten by the user. It is the only snapshot present when there is no show loaded.
When recalled, it sets the control centre — regardless of scope settings (unless
hardware safes are in place) — to a safe state in which it is not passing any audio.
The settings include:
• All mutes off.
• Gains are set to 0dB.
• All levels are at minus infinity (-4) dB.
• All faders are at minus infinity (-4) dB — except VCA faders, which remain at 0dB.
