In the conductor panels, you can memorize Grid scenes and recall them manually or according to a precise Time Code.

In Usine there are two conductor windows:

• Normal: to set, modify, delete scenes.
• Lite: a simplified version more suitable for a stage utilization.

To open the conductor windows, there is two ways:

1. Use the menu windows/conductor,
2. Or the shortcuts ctrl+F7 and ctrl+F8.

Store, recall, and manage the scene list. Set a SMPTE code for complete automation and a transition time between scenes. The conductor can store 8 different banks and each bank can contain an unlimited number of scenes.

Include all modifications on your VST/VSTI in the scenes

Stores and adds a new scene at the end of the list

Rewrites a scene at the selected line

Inserts and stores a new line above the selected

Deletes the selected line

Recalls the next scene (next line)

Recalls the previous scene (previous line)

Name of the scene

Transition time at recall. Equivalent to a cross-fade time value in millisecond. Smooth fade for large value, and abrupt changes for small.

For a complete automation, set the SMPTE code that corresponds to the time you want to recall the scene. 00:00:00:00 means no automation.

To recall a scene, click on the line number. To move a line, drag & drop the line number above or after in the list.

Quantization option for the scene recall.

• None: no quantization.
• Cycle: recalled at the beginning of the next cycle.
• Bar: recalled at the beginning of the next bar.
• Beat: recalled at the beginning of the next beat.
• 8th: recalled at the beginning of the next 1/8th.

This is a simplified of the Conductor Normal window version for stage utilization.

Recalls the previous in the list.

Indicates the current selected scene.

Current scene number. Can be used for direct recall of a scene with a MIDI CC or PC.

Switches to the Normal Window Mode

Append the current scene at the end of the list. (Something like a quick snapshot…)

Rewrite the current scene. (fast update)

Displays the Conductor Lite window automatically at the loading of the workspace

Provides a direct access to the scenes number.

Sometime, it can be useful to isolate a control from a scene recall (for example a monitor volume). Click right on a control, and choose the not stored in conductor /Preset option.

A green indicator on a control means” not store in the conductor scene”
