For example, if G1 (Control Group 1) is assigned to a Strip, pressing its Wave key assigns G1 to the left joystick. Pressing another

assigned channel Strip’s Wave key assigns its channel, Control Group, or bus to the right joystick. Left/right joystick assign-

ments alternate each time a Wave key is pressed.

• Direct Assign: A channel is assigned to a joystick via the Channel Assign Panel (see page 64). Assigns a Control Group or Bus to

a joystick via the Bus Assign Panel (see page 65). Direct Assign is always active even if its key is not selected.

• 402 Cycle: A channel is assigned to a joystick from the CM402T Chan Select keys. Left/right joystick assignments alternate each

time a Chan Select key is pressed.
