Snapshot Options
You can save the settings of Input Gain, Input Processing, Input Routing, Summation, Aux and Clean Feed of all fader channels of the mixer as a mixer snapshot and load them again later on. The same is possible for the separate channels, thus saving/loading all Input Gain and Input Processing settings for a channel selected via ACCESS (see also Snapshot Functions).
In the project tree, select <Device>/<Mixer>. Select the Snapshot Options tab . Here you can select which functions and contents are saved in a snapshot.
Mixer Snapshot Options
Snapshot Group ID
The Snapshot transfer always requires DHDOSOM with snapshot manager software & license. See Operation Manager Documentation for further details.
Only necessary for Mixer Snapshots.
Virtual Mixers that should interchange mixer snapshots should have the same Snapshot Group ID.
If you want to transfer mixer snapshots from your server PC to a DHD device, it is essential that the Snapshot Group IDs are identical. Please read the section Mixer Snapshots to find out how to change the Snapshot Group ID of snapshots stored on the server PC.
In the Snapshot Group ID text box you can find the current ID of the virtual mixer. It is possible to change this ID, but then it is necessary to transfer the changed device configuration to the hardware afterwards.
You can use the same Snapshot Group ID on virtual mixers with the same Hardware Setup, e.g. use the ID Studio for Mixers Studio 1 and Studio 2. This makes it possible to transfer mixer snapshots between them.
You need to update or recreate your existing mixer snapshots after changing Snapshot Group ID.
By default, Mixer Name and Snapshot Group ID are coupled. When Changing Snapshot Group ID, the two values are uncoupled.
