DoubleTake Option Operation

with controls the amount of isolation between Primary and Secondary par-
tition E-MEM behavior.

If the partition boundary is assigned to the Secondary partition, recalls
by the Secondary partition splits that M/E. This setting would work
with the shot clock example cited in the introduction (

page 323

), espe-

cially if the shot clock is used frequently and the remaining resources of
that M/E are sufficient. Note that there is a chicken and egg aspect to
this mapping. The M/E cannot be split from the Main panel by
recalling a Secondary partition unless the M/E is already split. You will
need to go to the M/E Mode menu and manually turn on Split mode to
activate Secondary partition recalls from the Main panel. You will also
need to manually turn Split mode off from the menu to restore all the
resources to the Primary partition.

If the partition boundary is assigned to the Primary partition E-MEM
level, every E-MEM recall of the Primary partition of a split M/E
imposes the M/E mode and the secondary resource assignments.
E-MEM recalls of the Secondary partition will not change the current
mode or alter any resource assignments. This mapping is useful in cases
where split M/E mode is used occasionally during a show, but the M/E
is normally used unsplit. Primary partition E-MEM recalls will split the
M/E when desired and restores it when all resources are needed by the
Primary partition. Note that all the effects built on the Primary partition
will need to include consistent partition boundary information. If any
change is made later in M/E partitioning, all the Primary partition
effects will need to be edited.

If the partition boundary is assigned to a different E-MEM level
entirely, complete independence of the split M/E partitions results.
This setting can be used to map all M/E partition boundaries to the
same separate level. This level can be used to preset the partitioning of
the entire switcher, and then Primary and Secondary E-MEM opera-
tions would not change the switcher settings.

If the partition boundary is unassigned (none), E-MEM recalls will not
affect the current M/E settings. Changes can only be done manually in
the M/E Mode menu.

If the M/E is not going to be used in split mode, the partition boundary
should be mapped to the main E-MEM level. This will retain normal
E-MEM operations for that unsplit M/E.

Secondary Level Attachment

The Primary partition is always associated with an M/E’s main E-MEM
level and has a dedicated button in the Master E-MEM subpanel (
