Chapter 2 Customizing Controller Assignments 51
Channel Strip
Choosing the Channel Strip class lets you use an assignment to set a channel strip
parameter. A Channel Strip pop-up menu appears below the Class menu, offering the
following parameters.
Autopunch Toggles the Autopunch function on and off.
Go to Marker Allows you to move the playhead to a marker number. An additional number
field below the Parameter menu is used to determine the destination marker
number.
Group Clutch Sets the automation group clutch; Automation groups are disabled when the
clutch is enabled. For buttons, set the group clutch to 1 when the button is
pressed, and set it to 0 when the button is released.
Active Sense Used by some control surfaces (such as the HUI) to process incoming MIDI
Active Sensing messages.
Shuttle Speed Sets the shuttle (forward and backward) speed directly. Use this for controllers
(usually knobs) that send an absolute—not relative—value.
Waveform Zoom Sets the waveform zoom level in the (key focus) Arrange area.
Quantize value Sets the Quantize value in the key focus window (if this parameter is available).
Division Sets the Division value in the key focus window (if this parameter is available).
Horizontal Zoom Sets horizontal zoom in the key focus window (if this parameter is available).
Vertical Zoom Sets vertical zoom in the key focus window (if this parameter is available).
Global Options Explanation
Channel Strip Type Explanation
Selected track This normally corresponds to the selected Arrange track. Exception: If the
control surface group’s Track Lock parameter is enabled, the selected track is
the one that was selected when Track Lock was enabled
Fader Bank This addresses a channel strip in the control surface group’s current View mode
(Arrange, All, Tracks, Single). This is dependent on the current Fader Bank value
for this mode (see below).
Example: The View mode is All, the All view Fader Bank is five, and the number
next to this parameter is two. Thus, the eighth channel strip in the All view is
addressed (Fader Bank and No. are 0-based, so add 1).
Index Same as the Fader Bank setting, but doesn’t depend on the current Fader Bank
value.
Audio An audio channel. The numerical value (No.) determines which audio channel
is addressed (again: 0-based; to address audio channel 2, use a value of 1).
Software Instrument Same as Audio setting, for software instrument channel strips.
Bus Same as Audio setting, for bus channel strips.
Auxiliary Same as Audio setting, for auxiliary channel strips.
Output Same as Audio setting, but for output channel strips.
Master The Master channel strip; If it does not exist in the project, the first output
channel strip is addressed.
