Default Re: 3 Ways: Active & Inactive

[ACTIVE / INACTIVE]

(1) It can be beneficial to include Sends in your template that are ready to route to various destinations - however are not currently active. Applications include destinations for effects, printing, cue mixes and more. Hold Command + Control while pressing the Sel switch on any encoder. Deactivated Sends are always displayed on the Knob Module, Display Modules and Master Modules using an @ symbol - such as @Boom for a send to a subharmonic generator. To activate or deactivate an entire row of Sends - such as for a headphone cue mix, use Command + Control + Option while clicking on a Sel switch for one of the encoders in the row.

(2) Use the QuickJump Shift + 7 to access editing functions on Soft Keys including Playlists, Edit operations and more. First select a range of channels - either from the Channel Strips or from the Tracks page on the Master Module - then press Active/Inactive from the Edit 1 section to activate or make inactive. This can be especially handy for grouped elements (dx, mx, fx or drums, guits, keys), AAF's or reference tracks that were imported into the session and placed into a folder track. Press Active/Inactive to quickly enable or disable the folder and its contents.

(3) This is a variation on (2) - which simply adds Show Hide to the conversation. Hold the Control (Fader module) modifier while pressing the same Active/Inactive soft key to access Hide + Inactive. Again, selecting then triggering this for a folder track will deactivate the folder and all of its contents then hide it all. Again, if this becomes an essential part of your workflow you can easily modify or centralize this EUCON soft key function into your customized user soft keys.
