When a Room Combiner is placed,
an Initialization Properties dialog
box appears for creating physical
relationships between rooms. The
overall space is first defined by left-
clicking multiple squares (non-
contiguous rooms are allowed).
Right-clicking then provides a
menu of additional options, such as
Merge
adjacent squares into larger
rooms, and Isolate rooms which
have no moveable partitions.
Enable Control Inputs
provides
the Room Combiner with control
nodes, which allow combining via
external devices (see
).
Once a Room Combiner is placed, the Control Dialog Box is
available, which displays the overall space, including zones,
partitions, levels, and mutes. Moveable partitions are numbered
relative to control input nodes on the block. Combining may be
accomplished 'automatically' by manipulation of these partitions.
Moveable partitions can be opened/closed by means of external
controls (see
). Combining can instead
be accomplished by recalling stored preset configurations. Preset
configurations must first be

The Room Combiner dialog box allows rooms to be combined in
groups, which are color-coded and numbered for identification.
This can be used for real-time software control, or to generate
various configurations to be stored as presets. Rooms can be
grouped by manipulating partitions (using the mouse), or by
selecting multiple rooms while holding Shift or Ctrl. This last
approach allows non-contiguous and isolated rooms to be
included in combined groups. Right-clicking on a room provides a
menu of sixteen available groups. Level and mute adjustments
become ganged for all rooms combined in the same group.
