However, byholding down ALT on the keyboard while punching a Switcher row button, any Switcher source can besent to AUX instead. An AUX tag is added to the Switcher display to identify the selected source. Torevert to the default AUX source, roll the mouse over this tag and click the (x) gadget that it shows.
