The Snapshots page provides Main and Recall Safe tabs.
The Recall Previous (–) and Recall Next (+) buttons at the top of
the Snapshots list cause the previous or next snapshot in the list to
be targeted and recalled in one step.
Main Provides the primary snapshot controls.
Recall Safe Provides a matrix of channel parameters that can be
globally safed (or isolated) from Recall for all snapshots.

snapshot attributes.
Navigating the Snapshots List
Snapshot Entries
Green Indicates the last recalled snapshot.
Each entry in the Snapshots list has a number (001–999) and
name.
Snapshot Attribute Icons
To the right of each snapshot number and name are icons indicating the status of the available snapshot attributes. Icons can be
shown or hidden The following attributes have icons:
• Each snapshot provides a MIDI icon that lights if MIDI
messages are included in the snapshot (See “Adding MIDI
Data to Snapshots” on page 206.)
• If either the MIDI Read or Generate feature is enabled, each
snapshot shows a time code value, trigger indicator, or send
indicator. (See “Snapshot MIDI Time Code Display” on
page 232.)
• If system Tempo has been enabled in Options > Misc,
Tempo data can be shown for each snapshot instead of
MIDI. Each snapshot shows the tempo value associated
with each snapshot, along with a Tempo On/Off toggle
icon. (See “Adding Tempo Data to Snapshots” on
page 209.)
Both MIDI and Tempo are available parameters at all
times. However, the Snapshots list can only display one or
the other at a time.
• On systems connected to a compatible Pro Tools system
with VENUE Link enabled, a snapshot can be configured to
create a Marker in the Pro Tools recording when that snapshot is recalled. The diamond-shaped Markers icon toggles
this feature on/off for each snapshot. (See “Creating a
Pro Tools Marker from a Snapshot” on page 267.)
• Each snapshot provides a Lock icon that toggles the snapshot between Locked (write-protected) and Unlocked. See
“Locking Snapshots” on page 199.
