JLCooper CS-32 MiniDesk: Pots
As the pots are not motorized, Pickup mode is used (if turned on in the Control Surfaces
preferences). In Pickup mode, the controller must reach (pick up) the current value before
the value starts to change. This prevents sudden jumps of parameter values caused by
playing back automation.
A pot’s current value is indicated by the NULL arrow LEDs.
• The Upper arrow is lit if the pot’s value is above the current value.
• The Lower arrow is lit if the pot’s value is below the current value.
• Both arrow LEDs are lit when the pot has reached the current value.
The pots can operate in one of three modes, with one sub-mode in each.
Note: If a modifier button, such as SHIFT, is shown below a description, it indicates that
the control has an alternate use while the modifier is held down.
