M7CL Quick Start Guide Part 3 Scene management and other memorized features. M7CL can memorize all of its mixing parameters such as EQ, dynamics and fader levels. These memories are stored into a “snapshot” or “scene”. The analog equivalent is “marking up” the desk on the familiar printed sheets of circles. This “scene” represents the best positions for all the parameters at that particular point in time. If soundcheck and rehearsal time allow, it is possible to create a scene snapshot for ea

M7CL Quick Start Guide Part 3 Next press the [STORE] key and the SCENE STORE keyboard pop-up will appear. This lets you name the scene and provides extra space for a comment or longer scene name.

M7CL Quick Start Guide Part 3 Focus (or Recall Focus); typical use examples. Focus is another way of limiting the amount of information that is recalled when the chosen scene is recalled. 1. Multiband shows. In a multiband line up show each engineer wants his own GEQ setting, but also they want changes to be possible without scene recall “undoing” them.

M7CL Quick Start Guide Part 3 What is in a scene? When a scene is stored it is useful to know what is included in the scene and can be changed by scene recall and what is not. However just because things are not remembered by scene recall doesn’t mean they are not remembered at power down or are not included in the whole console file. These text boxes should make it clear what is stored in scene memory and what is not. Included in scene recall Not included in scene recall but still remembered f
