Playback Using the Grab Feature

Note: The Grab feature was added with Vx76 software version 2.0. The previously unused [Fan Type] button on the
command keypad was replaced with a [Grab] button.

Grab provides the capability to withhold functions of a channel from playback. When a channel is "grabbed," the
current function filter will determine which parameters are affected. These parameters will respond normally to all
manual commands, but will not respond to any submaster control.

Grab is initiated from the command line. When the [Grab] button is pressed, the function filter will automatically open
(as with Selective Store), to highlight the fact that the filter applies to Grab and to allow setting of the desired state.

The Grab selection can be set in various ways, including command line and control key combinations. All normal
selection rules apply in terms of additive and exclusive selects. For example, [Grab] [1] [Thru] [5] [Enter] will result in
channels 1-5 being the only grabbed channels (just like selection would work). [Grab] [+] [1] [Thru] [5] [Enter] would
add channels 1-5 to the grab selection.

Using with the command line:

+

[Grab] [Enter] - Sets the grab selection to current selection (all others ungrabbed). If no channels selected, it
would ungrab all.

+

[Grab] (channel select expression) [Enter] - Sets grab selection to expression (all others ungrabbed)

+

[Grab] [0] [Enter] - Sets grab selection to none (ungrabs all).

+

[Grab] [+] (channel select expression) - Grabs additional channels (others are unaffected).

+

[Grab] [-] (channel select expression) - Ungrabs specified channels (others are unaffected).

When channels are grabbed, the channels specified by the grab command will become the

current selection

. For

example, if channels 1-10 are selected and [Grab] [20] [Enter] is input on the command line, then Channel 20 will be
selected and channels 1-10 deselected.

Using with other keys:

+

[Grab]+[submaster choose] - Grabs channels controlled by the submaster (all others ungrabbed). ("Choose" is
activated by touching the specific submaster on the touchscreen.)

+

[Grab]+[group select] - Grabs channels in group (all others ungrabbed).

When Grab is used as a control key, it will be automatically dismissed on the command line as with other control keys
like [Store]. For example, [Grab]+[group select].

Showing the grab selection:

+

[Group] [Grab] [Enter] - Sets selection to current grab selection.
