Hardware Setup - Button Array
If you have the optional Button Array, when the top left green Channel LED is not
on, the function of the four banks of twenty-five buttons are determined by this
dialog box. If you don't have the physical hardware, you will access the array using
the Tools button and pressing virtual buttons on your screen using a mouse or touch
screen. Each bank of twenty-five (buttons A through Y) can have a series of Look
Pages assigned to them in a stack that are accessible using the up and down
arrows above each bank.
Button Action
As you select different Look Pages to add (and their First Button Number offset),
you can decide what the action of the button is.
Apply Palette
The selected Channels will have the Look applied to them as a Palette and the
affected attributes will be marked with deltas, ready to record. If the selected Channels
were not recorded in the Look, nothing happens when this button is pressed.
Select Channels
The Channels recorded in the Look will become selected. No attributes will become
captured.
Apply Level
The selected Channels will have their attribute and intensity levels set to the values
recorded in the Look and the affected attributes will be marked with deltas, ready to
record.
Select (1) + Apply (2)
Upon the first press, the Channels recorded in the Look will become selected. No
attributes will become captured. If you double-press the buttons, the Channels will
become selected and their attributes will have the Look applied to them as a Palette.
Typically, recording groups at levels and setting a Button Bank up as a Group Select
nicely takes advantage of this Button Action. That way, pressing the button once just
selects the Channels, but if you double-press it, you have them selected and set to
their pre-recorded level.
