EQ
The EQ knobset is the same as DYN but for EQ plug-ins. It is also important to note that EQ knobset is simply a special case map-
ping of parameters from the INSERT knobset. This is dedicated to provide control of EQ plug-ins in a way that is consistent with
other EUCON enabled DAW systems.
The special mapping the EQ plug-in parameters lets you make use of all eight knob cells for EQ editing:
• Each band of EQ uses two knob cells. one each for GAIN and FREQ. To access Q (or bandwidth), press the SEL button on the
FREQ knob cell. This means you have access to four fully parametric bands of EQ at one time. This method of displaying EQ
parameters is derived from the Euphonix flagship console, System 5.
• Bands are mapped from Hi to Low starting with knob cell 1. This means Low bands are at the bottom and High Bands are at
the top of the channel strip.
• For EQ plug-ins with more than four bands, the PAGE buttons allow for scrolling to additional bands.
Example, for 7 band EQ:
•Page 1 shows LF, LMF, HMF and HF.
•Page 2 shows HPF, LPF and MF.
• LPF and HPF filter slope is toggled by pressing SEL on FREQ knob.
• LPF and HPF filter type is toggled by pressing ON button on FREQ knob.
AUX (send)
The AUX (send) knobset displays SND level. This knobset provides access to Sends A-E in Pro Tools for all channels.
•Pressing SEL toggles through SND A-E.
• ON button toggles Pre/Post.
• Currently No Assign Mode implemented. This can only be accessed via Soft Keys.
PAN (Default Knobset)
The PAN knobset shows the channel strip panner. PAN knobset defaults to NORMAL mode.
MIX
The MIX knobset displays the currently assigned outputs.
To assign outputs:
• Turn knob until desired output is displayed.
• Press blinking ON button to assign.
Mirrored, All and/or Cascade Outputs
• To assign multiple outputs from the same channel, hold Control (Mac) when you assign.
• To assign output on all channels, hold Option (Mac) and assign.
• To assign output on all selected channels, hold Option+Shift (Mac) and assign
• To cascade output assignments, add Command (Mac) modifier to any above.
GRP (Group)
The GRP knob Set may seem basic at first glance. The GRP knobset displays the parameters of selected plug-ins. The knobs are
mapped in the same way as the HUI DSP Edit/Assign section, including a scroll knob. These are mapped to knob cells 1-5 as op-
posed to INSERT knobset, which maps the controls on 3-8 for easy reach on the 408T modules.
The GRP knob Set also displays the PAN, INPUT, MIX and AUX control on knob cell eight.
The top level of the GRP knobset displays the plug-ins on selected channel. To edit a plug-in, press the corresponding knob-top.
