Working with Sessions
All of your console’s mix settings in LS9 Editor, including Scene and library data, are called Sessions.
The following table describes how to handle Sessions.
When you save a session in the window of an editor, the settings of only that editor will be saved in a file. Session files
saved by LS9 Editor have a filename extension of .YSE”. Files in which only the LS9 console data is saved (filename
extension .L9A”) can also be handled, allowing you to use a USB storage device to exchange data with the LS9 con-
sole.
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.
Undo/Redo Function
In LS9 Editor, you can cancel the latest operation (Undo) and also cancel the cancellation of the latest operation
(Redo). If you perform an Undo operation twice in a row, you can cancel the two most-recent operations. If you per-
form an Undo operation three times in a row, you can cancel the three most-recent operations. In this way, you can
cancel multiple recent operations. The following table describes how to use the Undo/Redo function.
Please note, however, that after you perform one of the following operations, you cannot successfully undo or redo
any previous operation:
•Operations on the LS9 console
Quitting Studio Manager
•Synchronizing with the LS9 console
•Session operations
You cannot Undo or Redo the following operations:
• Edits in the Setup window
• Synchronization
• Opening and closing the windows
• Resizing or moving the windows
There are certain other operations that cannot be undone, depending on the function.
For library or scene operations, Undo/Redo applies only to the single most recent operation. You cannot
undo any operations prior to this. Undo/Redo in these windows is available only using the [UNDO] button
within the respective window. Even if you perform a scene recall from the Master window, you cannot use
a shortcut or menu operation to undo the recall.
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.
Undo Choose [Undo] from the [Edit] menu.
Redo Choose [Redo] from the [Edit] menu.

Synchronizing LS9 Editor
When LS9 Editor starts up, the parameter settings on the console and the parameter settings in LS9 Editor may be
different. Therefore, you must first match the parameter settings on the console with those in LS9 Editor. This oper-
ation is called “synchronization. Follow the steps below to synchronize LS9 Editor.
1 Select [Synchronization], then [Re-synchronize].
The following window opens.
2 Select whether you want to transfer your settings to LS9 Edi-
tor, 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 LS9 Editor to your console.
Console PC: Tr ansfers the current parameter settings of your console to the LS9 Editor.
3 Click [OK].
Do not operate the console while synchronization is in progress.
If you use the “Total Recall” function in Studio Manager, all selected Editors in Studio Manager are synchronized
with the corresponding devices.
If you synchronize using PC -> Console, and the console contains data that is set to “read-only,” a dialog box will ask
you whether you want to copy the read-only data to LS9 Editor.
If this data is not copied, console data that is set to read-only status will not be synchronized.
Offline Edit Function
If you do not want to synchronize your console with LS9 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 LS9 Editor.
The Offline Edit function is also activated when you click the [ONLINE]/[OFFLINE] button in the Sync window.
Some effect parameters in the console change their displayed values depending on the sampling fre-
quency. If you switch LS9 Editor from OFFLINE to ONLINE, displayed parameter values may change
because LS9 Editor loads the sampling frequency from the console and updates the display.
Basic operation of controllers
You can operate the controllers in the following ways.
Knobs
•Drag
•Click, and then use the up/down/left/right cursor keys
•Click, and then use the PageUp/PageDown keys (greater change than the cursor keys)
•Click, and then Home sets to far left
•Click, and then End sets to far right
<Ctrl>(< >)+click sets to default value
For send knobs etc., sets to – regardless of the default value.
<Ctrl>(< >)+<Shift>+click sets to nominal
For send knobs etc., sets to nominal regardless of the default value.

E MATRIX SEND
These bar graphs indicate the send levels of the signals sent from the
MIX channel to MATRIX 1–8 bus. You can also adjust the send lev-
els by dragging a bar graph to left or right. While you drag the bar
graph, the send level is shown in the numerical display area for
PAN/BALANCE (
6).
You can set the minimum value (– dB) by holding down the
<Ctrl>(< >) key of your computer keyboard and clicking the bar
graph, or set the nominal value (0.00 dB) by holding down the
<Ctrl>(< >) key and <Shift> key and clicking the bar graph.
The bar graph display will change as follows according to the send position (pre/post)
and on/off status of the signal sent from the MIX channel to the MATRIX buses.
To switch a send on/off, click the channel number located at the left of the bar graph.
F PAN/BALANCE

knob. If assigned as a stereo bus, this adjusts the balance of the odd-numbered channel
and even-numbered channel. The stereo bus setting can be made in Mix Bus Setup of
the Mixer Setup screen.
The [ST] button is an on/off switch for the signal that is sent from the mix channel to
the STEREO bus.
The [MONO] button is an on/off switch for the signal that is sent from the mix channel
to the MONO bus.

This column indicates the effect type.
In the case of dynamics, there is also an indication of the dynamics processor(s) of this channel into which each
library item can be recalled. Only library items with an indication of “1” can be recalled to DYNAMICS 1, and
only library items with an indication of “2” can be recalled to DYNAMICS 2. Data for which neither “1” or “2” is

To do this, use the following methods to select the data that you want to copy or move.
•To select the single data
Click the line containing the desired data.
•To select multiple consecutive data
Click the first data to select it; then hold down the <Shift> key and
click the last data.
•To select multiple non-consecutive data
Click the first data; then hold down the <Ctrl>(< >) key and click
each of the remaining data.
When you have selected the data that you want to move or copy, drag them to the desired location in the other list
(if you’re copying between lists) or in the same list (if you’re copying/moving within the same list).
•To copy data (overwriting the destination)
Drag the copy-source data to the desired line in the other list or to
another line in the same list. At this time, a ® symbol will appear at
the right of the data number.
When you drop the data in this state, a dialog box will appear, asking
you to confirm the Save operation. If you click the OK button, the
copy-source data will be overwritten onto the copy-destination data,
and the copy-source data will remain unchanged. (If the copy-source
selection contains multiple data, the data will be overwritten onto
consecutive data starting at that data.)
•To move data
Within the same list, you can move the selected data to another loca-
tion to rearrange the order of the data in the list. To do this, drag the
selected data to a location between two other lines in the same list. At
this time, a symbol will appear between the lines.
When you release the mouse button in this state, the selected data will
move to that location, and the data numbers will also change accord-
ingly. (If the move-source selection contains multiple data, those data
will be inserted consecutively at the location you specify.)
•You cannot copy the InitialData of the GEQ library.
Read-only data cannot be moved.
N STORE
Stores the current settings to the data item that is selected in the list.
O RECALL
Recalls the data item that is selected in the list.
P CLEAR
Clears the data item(s) selected in the list. (when data is deleted, the title field will be blank)
Q UNDO
Cancels the last-performed library recall, store, copy, or move operation.
You can click this repeatedly to repeat Undo and Redo.
