Channel Masking : Technical Support

Does Emu support channel masking similar to how DMXis did?

Additionally, as a Reaper user, the VST User Interface is very lacking compared to the DMXis version. Are there any plans to improve the UI experience?

Hi Sean! Currently EMU does not support channel masking. I'll make sure to push your request to the development team for consideration.

For the VST interface, can you explain what you are looking for? We have no plans to have an instance of EMU open inside your DAW the same way that DMXIS did. Is that what you are looking for? Or is it just that you have other suggestions for the VST UI?

Any update on channel masking or having the ability to exclude faders from being updated when changing a program or scene?

maybe he means that there is no UI at all for the VST

you can enable the Reaper UI, but it's not really pretty (and has too much faders)

I somewhat made a workaround by adding the 7 Faders I use to the track controls

Are there any updates on Channel Masking - it is crucial for me to switch from DMXIS to EMU. If this does not work I will not be able to switch.

Didn't know of such a feature existence. Just got acquainted with it:

ENTTEC DMXIS Training : Channel Masking (Video 6)

So, it might be helpful when your have an existing show and you need change something within a channel or specific channels for the whole show. You mask the channels you need to change thru the whole show, make changes in one program and bang you have the change in all programs thru the show, i.e. affecting all banks. Or only thru the bank? Do I understand right?

In EMU we have option "Lock":

I don't use it and even can't imagine when it can be used. But seems it is like something opposite to masking. If you lock a channel - then whatever you do with your show (copy/add banks/programs, change faders) - this channel is always locked and stays at the locked value all the time thru the show.
