How to use
M/E Xpoints
You can set crosspoints in a matrix control. The information about the destinations and sources is also displayed in separate tables. With the destinations table, you can change the connected input by setting a different source number.
Bus Key States
Each individual state is displayed.
Snapshots and Macro Control
This information is displayed in tables where you can manage presets of different kinds, which function in similar ways.
You can add a preset using the page button at the top of each table. Before saving the preset in the table, you can check if the preset works by clicking Test Exec. Feedback of the operation is provided in the UI.
You can edit an existing preset by right-clicking it in the table and selecting Copy to Editor. A pop-up message with further instructions will be displayed. After you have clicked Copy to Editor, use the above-mentioned preset page button to edit the preset instead of adding it. Note that changing the preset name is not supported through this workflow. If you change the name, a new preset will be added instead. You can only edit a preset name by changing it directly in the table. Duplicate names are not allowed.
