On grandMA desks I often use two macros to find a certain patched channel quickly. It works like this:
1. select a group of channels in which there is the channel you're looking for (e.g. all patched channels)
2. set "Highlight" on
3. press first macro called "Yes" telling the desk that the channel you're looking for is on at the moment
4. if channel is still on press "Yes" again, if not press "No" and so on until there is only the missing channel on
The macros work like this:
"Yes" stores the actual active channels in group 999, selects all odd channels (bringing down the even channels because in Highlight mode) and stores them to group 998
"No" selects group 999 (brings them to full) and selects all even channels out of these
I tried to write this on EOS but can't get it to work because the desk handles Odd and Even referring to the actual channel numbers not to the 1,3,5,7,9,.... / 2,4,6,8,10,.... of a group of channels. I tried the reorder command but this doesn't help.
Can somebody point me to a solution for selecting half of the channels out of a group and later selecting the other half without using Odd and Even? Or has somebody another solution for finding a certain channel quickly without stepping through hundreds of channels?
Thanks a lot!
