Key profiles
The Pearl allows you to reconfigure how the front panel buttons work
to suit your method of working. You can also change the way some of
the touch keys work on the Touch Wing. You can save your settings
as a Key Profile. Different profiles can be selected for different users
or to enhance the operation of the console for a particular use. See
section 13.2 on page 133 for details.

button presses. You can record sequences of keypresses and play
them back with a single keypress – this is called a macro. To record a
macro:
1> Press the blue Macro (previously Insert) button (to the right of
the numeric keys).
2> Press
[Record]
3> Press a vacant preset Flash button. Recording starts. The Macro
button flashes during recording.
4> Press the sequence of buttons you want to record.
5> Press Macro to finish recording.
5> Press Macro to finish recording.

(with no delay or timing between the presses).

dedicated buttons on the Wing. In addition you can display a

Loading and saving shows
You can save any number of different shows on a USB drive or the
Pearl’s internal hard disk. The Pearl will also autosave the show
periodically.
Note: You cannot transfer shows between the Pearl Expert Titan and
other versions of the Pearl or Pearl Expert as the showfile
format is different. You can load shows to/from other Titan
consoles such as the Tiger Touch.
