As with any control, changes to General Patch connections may be Audi-
tioned.
Record a General Patch Change: To automate a connection in the General Patch, use the following proce-
dure:
1. Select the desired global Control Mode. Write will overwrite previous
changes, both location and connection type.
2. Select TOUCH RECORD.
3. Select the desired “Write To:” and “Extend Back To:” functions.
4. Open the General Patch if it is not already open.
5. Select the connection point to be automated (single click at the desired
location).
6. Make/break the desired connection as follows:
• To make a simple mono-to-mono connection, press the MAKE
CONNECT function key above the trackball. (Double-clicking the
connection location will bring up the connection menu where a
mono-to-mono connection may be made.)
• To make a complex connection (mono-to-stereo, stereo-to-stereo,
stereo-to-mono), double-clicking the connection location will bring
up the connection menu where the desired connection may be made.
• To break any connection, press the BREAK CONNECT function key
above the trackball. (Double-clicking the connection location will
bring up the connection menu where a connection may be broken.)
7. Upon the selection of the desired connection type, AutoTouch+ will
punch-in. Following the rules for Press and Hold, the new connection
state will persist until the “Write To:” conditions are met or a Global
Punch-out occurs.
8. When timecode is stopped, a new Mix Pass will be generated.
Note: Like any other object within AutoTouch+, all General Patch connection
points are Static objects until a change state is recorded in the system.
Therefore, General Patch connections may be updated in the same manner
as any other Static control.
