Snapshots
The snapshots system includes five local memories (stored on the Compact Engine) plus an unlimited number
of DisplayDock snapshots (stored on the control PC).
The local memories always save and load settings globally, whileDisplayDock snapshots come in two types: Full
snapshots (to save settings globally) or Source snapshots (to save only the settings for the source in access).
It is not recommended that snapshots are loaded during a live broadcast, as to do so may result in sources
being taken off air!
8.15.1
What's Stored in a Snapshot?
The following settings are stored (and recalled) by all snapshots:
·
Fader Strip Assignment
– the assignment of sources to fader strips.
·
User Labels
– the two User Label text lines for all sources.
·
DSP settings
– Input Parameters, EQ, Dynamics, Limiter, and De-Esser for all sources.
·
Bus Assignment
– the assignment of sources onto the console’s summing buses and their AUX send
levels.
·
Local Matrix Assignments
– the assignment of the destinations in the local matrix.
Note that fader levels are not stored (and recalled) so that snapshots can be used during a live transmission
without affecting the current channel levels.

the keys on the Central Module. For each operation you will need to press
