Move / Rearrange Controller Strips?

[gordwait]

Is there a way to move around the controller strips at the bottom?

My setup has things kind of scattered around, and I'd like to put things together.

IE all the monitor icons beside each other. I did look around the manual but didn't see a way..

Yes, touch and hold the icon you wish to move until it goes slightly transparent and looks like it detaches. Then, without releasing, drag either left or right along the control strip and release when it is in the location you want it.

 

I found it easiest to move things out of the way, then move things into the freed up space.

You have to be in Setup Mode,

then you can touch and hold the icon you want to move.

I start to arrange the Icons first, that i want to have in the top left, an then go on to the right. Because the Icons right and also the lower line, sometimes also move, if more Space is needed.

You have to be in Setup Mode

 

Sorry to correct you theShowmakers BUT you can be in either SETUP, MONITOR or PERFORM mode for this to work.

 

Indeed it may well be easiest in MONITOR and PERFORM as the icons are larger.

 

It is true though that icons may move if you drop them onto an occupied space but there is logic in how the shuffling works... 

 

If you move an icon to an occupied space, the icon which was in that position moves to the next available open space (next highest number). The spaces are organised as:

1 3 5 7 9 11

2 4 6 8 10 12

as you view the strip. ie the top row is "odd" positions, the bottom row "even"

 

If there isn't an available space, the icon will be on the next screen in the first available space.

 

I have on screen one

male and female lead vox in 1 and 3 repectively

Sweet! I will try this out, thanks for the responses!

(was this in the manual?) (answer, yes it is, just came across it looking at other features.. )
