Flipping Encoder Parameters to Faders on Artist Mix (Only)
Artist Mix lets you “flip” pan, plug-in, and send parameters to control them from the faders. Flipping plug-
ins to the faders lets you control eight parameters simultaneously (or more, if your system includes more
than one Artist Mix). The following example shows how to flip plug-in parameters to faders. Flip also
works with pan and sends.
To flip plug-in controls to faders using Artist Mix:
1 Select a track that already has a plug-in inserted.
2 Press the INSERT key.
3 Push the encoder for the desired plug-in.
4 On Artist Mix, press the FLIP key (hold the SHIFT key and press CHAN/FLIP). Plug-in parameters are
now at the faders.
5 Press the PAGE> key (if lit) to go to additional parameters. Press <PAGE to return to previous pages.
6 Press FLIP again to flip back to encoders.
7 Press the BACK key to close the plug-in.
