The automatic copy “… Show-Designer”
Droplit never writes to your original project. The first time you save, it creates a copy and saves everything there from then on. That keeps your original safe if anything goes wrong.
Step by step
- Open your project and design a show. Below “Save to SoundSwitch” it says “to a copy of your project – the original stays untouched”.
- Tap “Save to SoundSwitch”.
- Droplit creates the copy “<project name> Show-Designer” and saves the show there. The window that follows says “To keep your original safe, we made a copy: … All your other shows go there too.”
- Open the copy in SoundSwitch, not the original. That’s where your new show is.
More from “Projects & banks”
- The Overview: banks and padsAfter you open a project, you land in the Overview. It shows the banks of your SoundSwitch project as pads, much like on a controller, and you pick the slot you want to design.Summary
- Banks and slotsSoundSwitch organizes Autoloops and Static Looks in banks of 32 slots each. Droplit shows the same banks and names as SoundSwitch and writes to exactly the slot you choose.Summary
- Filling an empty slot with a new showA pad with “+” is a free slot. When you tap it, Droplit immediately builds a first show for your lights. You adjust it in the Studio and then save it to SoundSwitch.Summary
- Opening and editing an existing showTo open a show that’s already in SoundSwitch, tap its pad. Droplit loads it exactly as it’s saved in SoundSwitch and plays it in the preview.Summary
- Renaming, deleting or moving a showDroplit builds and changes shows in their slot. You can rename a show in the Studio. Deleting and moving aren’t part of Droplit; you do that in SoundSwitch.Summary
