Ports can be selected in Windows by choosing Setup from the File menu.
Ports can be selected on the Mac by choosing Select OMS Ports from the File menu. OMS MIDI Setup, OMS Studio Setup, and the System setup dialog are also accessible from the File menu. See the OMS documentation for more information on OMS. The System setup dialog is not part of OMS and is described in the next section.
System setup dialog
To open the dialog, select it from the File menu. This dialog is used to select one of eight Console Device IDs. You must ensure that the DM2000 you want to communicate with is set to the same ID. From here, you can turn on and off Studio Manager’s control of channel and Layer selection on the DM2000, and the DM2000’s control of channel and Layer selec­tion in Studio Manager, and also choose whether or not you want DM2000 patching con­firmed before carrying it out. On the Windows version, the dialog is also used to select input and output ports for Studio Manager.
Studio Manager—Owner’s Manual

Using Studio Manager Online & Offline 14

Shown below left is the Mac version of the dialog, and below right is the Windows version.
Using Studio Manager Online & Ofine
When Studio Manager is started, it opens a new Session using its default settings and checks whether an active DM2000 is connected, active meaning connected and turned on. If an active DM2000 is detected, a message appears asking whether or not you want to transfer the settings of the Studio Manager Session to the DM2000 (PC –>Console), or transfer the settings of the DM2000 to the Studio Manager Session (Console–>PC), or neither (CAN­CEL). After you have selected your option, the ONLINE/OFFLINE status indicator of the Console window displays whether Studio Manager is online or offline accordingly.
Note: Do not operate the DM2000 while Studio Manager is synchronizing. Wait until the ONLINE/OFFLINE status indicator shows “ONLINE.” This ensures that the settings on the DM2000 and in Studio Manager are the same.
If no active DM2000 is detected, no messages appear and a new Session opens using the default settings. If an active DM2000 is detected after Studio Manager was started, the same message appears as described previously.
If you want to change to online or offline at any time later, choose Re-synchronize... from the Studio Manager Synchronization menu, and the same message appears as described previously.
Only one Studio Manager Session can be open at a time. If a Session is open, and you want to open another, either a previously saved Session or a new one, a message appears warning that the current Session will be overwritten if you continue. If Studio Manager is offline and you continue, the Session is loaded. If Studio Manager is online and you continue, the Ses­sion is loaded and the same message appears as described previously, asking if you want to transfer the settings of the Session to the DM2000, or transfer the settings from the DM2000 (which can be used as an Undo function), or neither.
Note that there is an All Lib option in the message window described above. This is used to select whether or not the contents of the libraries are transferred.
Note: In Version 1.0 of Studio Manager for DM2000, the settings of a Session can include library information, however you cannot edit the contents of the libraries as there is no Library window.
Note: When you execute a Library Sort operation on the DM2000, you must synchronize Stu­dio Manager after wards. To do this choose Re-synchronize from the Synchronization menu and ensure that the All Lib option just described is selected before synchronizing.

The Console window is Studio Manager’s main window and opens when Studio Manager is started. It provides an overview of the mixer channels, and most major functions can be operated from here. The window is divided into the Channel Section and the Master Sec­tion. The Channel Section displays a Layer (24 channels) at a time, and Layers can be selected by using the LAYER buttons in the Master Section.
