4.4.6 Strip Setup
The Strip setup page can be called up in three different ways:
• FromthePagemenu
• UsingthepageIcons
• UsingtheSTRIP SETUP function key in the Control Bay of the Vista sur-
face.
The Strip Setup page has a number of functions. Primarily, the ‘Strip Setup’
window allows the user to assign DSP Channels onto the Vista surface. It also
gives a very good overview of the console and may be used during general
operation of the console to help the user navigate around the console.
Please refer to chapter 1.1.5. for information on navigation philosophy.
The Strip Setup page (see below) provides a representation of the six sections
of the Vista ‘virtual surface’. Although the concept of navigation is based
on scrolling in a horizontal plane, the representation of the six sections is
displayed in a vertical plane because of screen space. The navigation system
allows the user to decide which area of the virtual console the Control Surface
will represent. The number of bays within a section will automatically be
identical to the number of physical bays of the control surface. In the example
shown below, the Control Surface will have three fader bays – a total of 30
faders. The total number of virtual channel strips available to represent DSP
channelsis6x30=180inthisexample.
