CHAPTER 3: Key Audio Design Features BEST PRACTICE: A handy way to view the links in which a control is a participant is the Link References dialog box. From this dialog box, you can also access details about each displayed link. To access a control's Link References dialog box, simply click the control's link icon. Note that if the control is a participant in only one link, there is no Link References dialog box, but only the single Link dialog box. BEST PRACTICE: Always test your link after creating it by changing one of the controls and checking if the other control(s) tracks the change. BEST PRACTICE: If you need a Selector control, use a DR as your remote hardware. DRs are preferable to Logic In selectors as DRs are dynamic, can have more than two selections, include automatic naming of the selections, provide end users with a nice user interface, and fit into a gang box with no custom fabrication. BEST PRACTICE: To activate and deactivate control links, you must use presets. BEST PRACTICE: If you want the DR selection names to match the channel names on the linked processing block, create the block's channel name(s) before linking it to the DR. BEST PRACTICE: In most situations, it is best to drag your hardware controls onto the Processing Map- instead of dragging controls from the Processing Map onto the Control palette. If configured in this manner, your Processing Map audio control will be the Link Master (unless you include a read-only hardware device). 121
