“When I change my 2408 setup in one song and then open another song in DP – the previous setup travels over… WHY?”
Whenever you change the bank a/b/c setup of the 2408 that data becomes the last template used, which basically becomes your default setup. But let’s say that your current song doesn’t use the same setup, or maybe you sometimes work with All ADAT‘s and sometimes you work with all Analog or whatever…
What you would do would be to open a new file in DP, go into your Basics menu > Audio System > Configure Hardware driver – make your setting changes, then save that song as, let’s say, “ADAT Template.” Then go back into DP again, make a new file and make your settings for your analog setup and save that as “Analog Template.” Get the idea?
Now whenever you want to work in the ADAT domain – you will open your ADAT template first, then open your song data accordingly, or you analog template, or whatever. Set these up for your most common uses.
