Adjusting Plug-Ins Using Global Control
(Insert Mode)
Selecting the Inserts Global Control encoder places Global Con-
trol into Insert mode. In Insert mode, plug-in parameters are as-
signed to the eight Global Control encoders and their correspond-
ing
In and Sel switches.
To adjust a plug-in using the Global Control encoders:
1 Do either of the following:
• If the desired plug-in is being used as a channel insert, se-
lect the channel or bus on which the plug-in is inserted.
• If the desired plug-in is being used as a bus processing
plug-in, bank to and select the FX Return or other channel
assigned as the plug-in output.
2 Make sure the Global Control menu is shown in the Global
Control displays (
Inserts, Aux/Grp, Matrixes, VCAs, Monitors
Mains
).
3 Do one of the following:
• To access the first plug-in on that channel, press the Global
Control encoder under the display showing
Inserts.
– or –
• To access the second plug-in, press the Global Control en-
coder
Sel switch under the display showing Inserts.
Plug-in parameters are assigned to the eight Global Control en-
coders.
4 To reset a parameter to its default value, hold Default/Alt
while rotating or pushing an encoder.
5 To adjust with greater resolution, hold Fine while rotating an
encoder.
6 If applicable, press the < Page or Page > Global Encoder Nav-
igation switch to bank to other plug-in parameters.
Adjusting Plug-Ins On-Screen
To adjust a plug-in on-screen:
1 Select a channel.
2 Go to the Plug-Ins page.
3 Double-click a plug-in icon in any rack view to open that
plug-in window in Zoom view.
4 Adjust the parameters for the plug-in appearing in the window
as desired.
Bypassing Plug-Ins
Plug-Ins can be bypassed on-screen in the Inputs or Outputs page
and from the Plug-Ins page.
To toggle a plug-in on/off (in/out of circuit):
1 Select the channel on which the plug-in is inserted.
2 Go to the Inputs page and click the in/out button next to the de-
sired plug-in to toggle it in/out of circuit. When the button
LED is lit, it indicates that the plug-in is in-circuit. When unlit,
the plug-in is out-of-circuit (bypassed).
Press the < Page Global Control Navigation switch as neces-
sary to return to the main Global Control menu.
The mapping of plug-in parameters to encoders varies by
plug-in. The function of each encoder and its switches is in-
dicated in the corresponding display.
