42 Chapter 2 Customizing Controller Assignments
 Mode list: Displays the modes for the currently selected zone. The first entry “(No
Mode)” is for modeless assignments. Click a mode in the list to see its assignments in
the Control/Parameter list, and make it the selected zone’s active mode. You can also
double-click a mode to rename it.
 Control/Parameter list: Select the assignment you want to edit. The left column
displays the name of the control, and the right column displays the name of the
parameter being controlled (in an abbreviated form). The parameters of the selected
assignment appear in the fields to the right of the list. See Controller Assignment
Parameters on page 42.
Note: You can select multiple assignments in the list, but only the parameters of the
first selected assignment are displayed. When multiple assignments are selected:
operations performed in the Edit menu can be applied to all selected assignments. All
other operations only apply to the first assignment.
 Controller Assignment Parameter: All aspects of the selected controller assignment
parameter are shown—and can be changed—in this area.
 Input Message: The port and MIDI input message can be altered directly. Some fields
in this section are merely displays, and cannot be changed.
 Value: The range of values, and response of the controller assignment to incoming
messages, is determined in this area. Feedback to the display of control surfaces can
also be determined here.
Controller Assignment Parameters
This section outlines each parameter shown in the right-hand fields of the Expert view.
Detailed descriptions of each parameter can be found in “Editing Controller
Assignments in Expert View on page 47.
Controller Assignment Parameter Section
 Control name field: Displays the name of the controller for supported devices. For
unsupported devices, displays “Learned”.
 Label field: Displays characters which represent the label for the assignment on the
control surface’s display. You can view this much like a scribble strip on a mixer.
 Flip Group field: Enter an integer to define a flip group for the assignment.
 Class pop-up menu: Choose the class of parameter (parameter type) you want to
assign.
Note: Depending on the class you choose, different fields and menus for that class
appear below the Class pop-up menu. See below:
 Parameter/Mode pop-up menu/field: Dependent on your selection in the Class pop-
up menu, you can choose from dozens of different parameters/modes. The options
available will change as different classes are selected.
