26 Chapter 1 Basic Control Surface Setup
If your control surface does not display all EQ parameters at once, you view them by
stepping through the parameter pages in sequence. As an example, if your control
surface has eight channel strips, you can directly control parameters 1 to 8 with
knobs or sliders 1 to 8 when you switch to EQ Channel Strip Edit view. You then need
to switch by a page to access parameters 9 to 16.
Send and Plug-in Parameters
The parameters in the middle of the Control Surface Group Parameter box enable you
to control different operational aspects when working with send and plug-in
parameters.
 Send Slot: Sets the currently selected Send slot. The default is 1, which sets the first
(top) Send on each channel as the Send slot. A value of 2 sets the second send as the
Send slot, a value of 3, the third Send slot, and so on.
 Send Parameter pop-up menu: Choose the send parameter controlled by the
encoders when in the Send Multi Channel view. The choices are:
 Destination: Encoder is used to determine the bus channel number for the Send
slot.
 Level: Encoder is used to adjust the send level.
 Position: Encoders set Pre, Post, or Post Pan fader modes.
 Mute: Encoders mute/unmute the selected Send slot.
 Send Parameter Page: Sets the current page for the send parameters. Up to 32
parameters are available in Send Channel Strip view for a given channel (Eight Send
slots multiplied by the four parameters listed above).
 Split: no. of upper parameters: Sets the number of encoders that belong to Split
Upper, for control surfaces that support split mode. The remaining encoders belong
to Split Lower. A value of 0 means that Split Mode is off—all encoders are assigned
to the Split Upper area.
Control surfaces that support split mode allow the display of two separate parameter
sections within one plug-in (or even different plug-ins). They are called Split Upper
and Split Lower.
 Instrument Parameter Page: Determines which parameter is assigned to the left-most
encoder when editing a software instrument. The next instrument parameter is
assigned to encoder 2, and so on. This applies to Split Upper when Split Mode is
enabled.
 Inst Parameter Page (Split Lower): Sets the parameter that is assigned to the left-most
encoder of Split Lower when editing a software instrument (when Split Mode is
enabled). The next instrument parameter is assigned to encoder 2, and so on.
