13 - Library functions The DM-24 allows storage of commonly-used settings in libraries. The settings that can be stored are: • Snapshots • EQ settings • Internal effector settings (separate groups for effec- tors 1 and 2) • Internal dynamics processor settings (both com- pressor and gate/expander) • Automation data The procedure for working with all of these libraries is very similar (except for the automation library, Library concepts Each library contains a number of different locations as follows: Library Snapshots EQ Effect 1 (P1) Effect 2 (P2) User effect library (U1) Compressor Gate/Expander Automation Total locations Read-only locations 100 1 128 20 128 128 128 128 128 0 128 18 128 2 7 - In most of the libraries, several locations are reserved as read-only, with the settings in these locations being set up containing useful pre-set values. The effect libraries are divided into two types: preset (P), where none of the locations can be overwritten, and a user library (U), where all locations can be use for storing user settings. See the separate effects manual for further details. Managing library entries Library entries can be stored, recalled and edited (including the addition of meaningful alphanumeric names). Storing active library entries When a library has been set as the active library, with direct key operation enabled, storing the current setting of that library is carried out in the following way from other screens: which has various different features and is explained in the automation manual). For all the libraries, practically all the administration can be carried out from a single screen. The dedicated LIBRARY keys (-, +, RECALL and STORE) to the immediate left of the display do not work with the automation data. As explained in "LIBRARY DIRECT KEY OPERATION" on page 20, these keys can be set up to work with any of the libraries above except for the automation data. If we make reference to the library which is selected for use with the dedicated keys in this way, we refer to it as the active library. On the screen, a read-only location is displayed with an inverse R (as is snapshot 000 in the screen below): Use these read-only settings "as-is" as presets, or use them as starting points for experimentation. If you try to store your own settings to any of these read-only entries, an appropriate popup error message appears. 1 Use the + and - keys to the left of the display to change the library entry number shown at the top of the screen. 2 Press the STORE key below the + and - keys to store the current settings to the library.
