D950/Vista7 Digital Mixing System
Date printed: 27.08.03 SW V3.3 AutoTouch+ 5-19
Operational Formula: The essential aspect to understanding the system is the following formula:
Rules + Conditions + Options = Exact Function
The key to efficient operation is knowledge of this formula and the ele-
ments within. Rules provide the basis of operation and functionality, Con-
ditions further define behaviors, and Options provide specific parameters
to the various elements being used.
In some instances (such as Switch and GC automation), the operation of
the control will also influence its functionality. However, in the majority
of cases the formula above will apply.
Document Note: When appropriate this document will organize information with the op-
erational formula in mind.
Functional Formula: Three basic areas should be kept in mind when conducting most Auto-
Touch+ operations:
• Selected Control Mode: Basic operating modes (READ, WRITE,
TRIM, and ISOLATE). Refer to chapter 5.6.
• Selected Touch and Hold Functions: Determine the effects of touching
a touch-sensitive control or operating a switch. Refer to chapter 5.7.
• Transition of data: How the data transitions between previously re-
corded data and newly recorded data. Refer to chapter 5.9.
If these areas are considered, especially when learning the system, logical
and predicted results will routine.
