The Graphic Editing view displays the mix as curves on a time line. You can see multiple channels at the same time, and easily see what moves are coming up. You edit the mix by drawing fader curves. Whats more, you can freely change the way you view the mix, with the Custom View, Cue List, or Graphic window, even while the mix is playing. And you can have multiple mixes open at the same time, allowing you to instantly compare two different mixes. You can even freely copy from one mix and paste into another mix! A clear indication of channel names, edit modes, grouping, and channel on/off status, combined with a large, easy to read time code display, make mixing fast and easy. Expansion Software also adds up to 15 groups to your mixer called SoftGroups. Any fader on the mixer can be turned into a SoftGroup Master, in addition to the mixers groups. When two mixers are connected, faders on one mixer can be a group master to faders on the other mixer. Your mixer faders become a virtual Control Surface, to control and automate signal processors and digital audio workstations. Expansion Software provides a clear graphic display of automated Surround Panning positions. It also allows panning of either individual channels or the grouped multiple channels. Mixes reside in the computers RAM. You can save the mixes to a disk, either manually or automatically using the Auto Backup feature. Expansion Software allows you to quickly create different mixes, listen to them, compare them, save them, retrieve and modify them. Expansion Software also allows you to customize the software to your personal style of mixing. You can label each fader, re-arrange the order of the faders, turn certain features on and off, etc. This customization is saved as part of a Preference file. Multiple Preferences files are supported, so different engineers can each have their own preferences. Chapter 17 DA7 Users’ Guide17-1817 Options Graphic View Panning Module
