Synchronizing DM1000 Editor
When DM1000 Editor starts up, the parameter settings on the console and the parameter settings
in DM1000 Editor may be different. Therefore, you must first match the parameter settings on the
console with those in DM1000 Editor. This operation is called “synchronization.” Follow the steps
below to synchronize DM1000 Editor.
1
Select [Synchronize], then [Total
Recall...].
The following window opens.
2
Select whether you want to transfer
your settings to DM1000 Editor, or vice
versa.
At this time, the All Libs option determines whether or not Scene and Library data is synchronized.
PC -> Console: Tr ansfers the current parameter settings in DM1000 Editor to your console.
Console -> PC: Tr ansfers the current parameter settings of your console to the DM1000 Editor.

Using DM1000 Editor
Do not operate the console while synchronization is in progress.
Note: If you use the “Total Recall” function in Studio Manager, all selected Editors in Studio Manager
are synchronized with the corresponding devices.
Offline Edit Function
If you do not want to synchronize your console with DM1000 Editor, select [Offline Edit] from the
[Synchronization] menu. To apply your off-line edits to your console, select [Re-Synchronize]
from the [Synchronization] with the PC->Console option to synchronize the console with
DM1000 Editor.
The Offline Edit function is also activated when you click the [ONLINE]/[OFFLINE] button in the
Master window.
Note: Some effect parameters in the console change their displayed values depending on the sampling
frequency. If you switch DM1000 Editor from OFFLINE to ONLINE, displayed parameter values may
change because DM1000 Editor loads the sampling frequency from the console and updates the display.
Working with Sessions
Keyboard Shortcuts
Index
All of your console’s mix settings in DM1000 Editor, including Scene and library data, are called
Sessions. The following table describes how to handle Sessions.
Creating a new Session Choose [New Session] from the [File] menu.
Opening a previously saved Session Choose [Open Session] from the [File] menu.
Saving the current Session Choose [Save Session] from the [File] menu.
Saving the current Session with a new name Choose [Save Session] As from the [File] menu.
Note: In order to save the current Automix, or the settings of an optional Y56K card, in a Session,
you must first resynchronize DM1000 Editor by selecting the Console->PC option.
DM1000 Editor—Owner’s Manual

If you save a Session in an Editor, only that Editor’s settings are saved in a file. The Editor’s settings
are saved in either the Studio Manager V2 format (file extension “.YSE”) or a format that is compatible with earlier versions of Studio Manager (file extension “.D1X”). Note that earlier versions
of Studio Manager cannot open a Session saved in the “.YSE” format.
If you save a Session in the Studio Manager window, all selected Editor settings are saved in a file
with a file extension of “.YSM.”
