Set how a mapped parameter behaves when changing patches
The On Patch Change pop-up menu in the General preferences pane determines how
saved mapped parameters behave when changing patches. However, you can choose to
set a custom behavior for a mapped parameter in the Mappings tab of the Screen Control
Inspector.
1. In the MainStage Screen Control Inspector, click the Mappings tab.
2. Select the On Patch Change pop-up menu in the On Patch column for the mapped
parameter, and choose from the following options:
• Use preference setting: The parameter value behavior when changing patches is
determined by the On Patch Change pop-up menu in the General preferences pane.
• Keep current value: The current value of the parameter is retained when changing
patches.
• Reset to saved value: The parameter value resets to the saved value when changing
patches.
• Match hardware value: The parameter value is set to the current hardware value
when changing patches.
Note: When you save a concert, the current value of each screen control in the currently
selected patch is saved in the concert. You can see the values update in the Screen Control
Inspector. When you export a patch, the current parameter values become the saved
values in the exported patch.
