Snapshots 230
Managing Snapshots
You can manage snapshots in the list by storing, locking, clearing, duplicating, deleting, or moving them. When any of these ac-
tions are performed while multiple snapshots are selected, on a Parent snapshot, or on a snapshot that is a member of a Snapshot
Group, you can choose to apply the action to only the selected snapshot or all related snapshots.
Storing Snapshots
You can modify the contents of an existing snapshot, overwriting it with new settings, using the Store command. It is not necessary
to recall a snapshot to store it. You can undo Store commands.
To store the current state of the system in an existing snapshot:
1 Set all parameters as you want them to be stored in the snapshot.
2 Select the snapshot in the Snapshot list.
3 Select the Store button on-screen.
4 Set the scope by doing the following:
• For each parameter you want to be affected when the snapshot is recalled, select the corresponding Data Type button so that
it is scoped (displayed in red).
• For each channel you want affected when the snapshot is recalled, select its on-screen channel fader so that it is scoped (dis-
played in red).
Locking Snapshots
Snapshots can be locked to prevent them from being accidentally altered, overwritten or deleted. Locked snapshots can be selected,
recalled, moved and duplicated. They cannot be overwritten, renamed, rescoped or otherwise changed. New and duplicated snap-
shots default to unlocked. Lock status can be changed at any time, including while in Preview mode.
To lock a snapshot:
1 Go to the Snapshots page and select the Main tab.
2 In the Snapshot list, select the padlock icon at the far right of the row for any item. The padlock icon illuminates to indicate the
snapshot is now locked.
3 Select multiple snapshots using Multi-Select or the Shift key to lock or unlock multiple snapshots at once.
Once locked, operations that would otherwise affect the snapshot cause the Status display and channel LCDs and Snapshot LCD
to temporarily show a message reminding you that the operation cannot be applied while the snapshot is locked.
To unlock a snapshot:
Select the lit padlock icon in the row for that snapshot.
Undo and Locked Snapshots
You can undo locking or unlocking a snapshot. When toggling lock status for a selection of more than one snapshot, the entire op-
eration creates a single undo point (it does not track and provide undo for each individual snapshot in the selection).
Snapshot lock controls
Undo can revert snapshots to “unlocked” status. For example, if you change the scope of an unlocked snapshot, lock the snap-
shot and then use Undo, the snapshot is unlocked. Pressing Undo one more time will revert the snapshot to its original scope.
