X32 DIGITAL MIXER Preliminary User Manual
7.13.3  Scenes Screen: Parameter Safe Tab
The scenes screen’s “parameter safe” tab configures which console parameters 
are and are not saved/switched with the console scenes. This is very useful 
when the operator has certain parameters that they wish to remain in control 
of, and would never want to have altered during a scene change, for example, 
the mic pre gains on the input channels. 
To adjust the various settings on the Parameter Safe tab, perform the 
following steps:
1.  Rotate any of the first 4 encoders to navigate among the checkboxes in the 
color screen, which represent various console areas that can be isolated from 
scene changes.
2.  Tap any of the first 4 encoders to select the console areas that have been 
selected with the encoders. In each of the four columns, multiple console 
areas can be selected and isolated from scene changes. 
The following areas of the console can be isolated from scene changes, and are 
divided up into 4 columns on the color screen:
Column 1: Input Channels
HA (Head Amp/Microphone Preamp)

Channel Equalizer

7.13.4  Scenes Screen: Channel Safe Tab
The scenes screen’s “channel safe” tab configures which console channels are 
and are not changed when a console scene change occurs. This allows the 
user to “protect” certain channels from ever changing during a scene change, 
giving them as much control as possible for key audio sources.
For example, in a theater context, the console operator may have dialed in just 
the right EQ and compressor settings and channel volume for the voice of the lead 
actor, and does not wish to have them altered when the console changes scenes 
and alters various parameters.  
To adjust the various settings on the Channel Safe tab, perform the 
following steps:
1.  Rotate any of the 6 encoders to navigate among the check boxes in the color 
screen, which represent various groups of channels that can be isolated from 
scene changes.
2.  Tap any of the 6 encoders to select the console areas that have been 
highlighted with the encoders. In each of the 6 columns, multiple console 
areas can be selected and isolated from scene changes.
The following areas of the console can be isolated from scene changes, and are 
divided up into six columns on the color screen:
Column 1: Channels 
Input Channels 1-16
Column 2: Channels 
Input Channels 17-32
Column 3: Buses
