Class pop-up menu parameters

menu. Dierent options appear below the Class pop-up menu when you choose a class. The
following describes the dierent classes, and the options available for each.
Class pop-up menu parameters
Mode Change: Choose to use an assignment to switch from one mode to another. An
additional Mode pop-up menu appears below the Class pop-up menu, allowing you to choose
between available modes. For example, Mackie Control assignment buttons can be used to
choose dierent modes for the encoders. The mode chosen in the Mode pop-up menu is
activated only when the Mode menu is set to Direct. If any other Mode menu item is chosen,
the following applies:
Toggle: The assignment toggles between the zone’s rst mode and the chosen mode. The
mode change assignment must be located in the same zone.
Relative: Use to step up and down through modes in a zone (using two buttons) or to
choose a mode with an encoder. The minimum destination parameter represents this
zones rst mode, and the maximum represents the zone’s last mode. The mode change
assignment must be located in the same zone.
Rotate: Use to step through all available modes with a single button press. For example, if
used with a Jog Wheel, a single button press would cycle between O, Scrub, Shuttle, and
then back to O. The minimum destination parameter represents this zones rst mode,
and the maximum represents the zone’s last mode. The mode change assignment must be
located in the same zone.
Global: Choose to use an assignment to control global parameters. A Parameter pop-up menu
appears below the Class pop-up menu, showing the parameters listed below. These only work
in relative mode, where changes are relative to the starting value or position.
