Chapter 4: JL Cooper CS-10 MIDI Control Surface 69
Rotary Knob Functions
When controlling a TDM configuration, the six
rotary knobs on the CS-10 main unit control:
◆ Pan and five sends
– or –
◆ Six plug-in parameters in the active Plug-In
Window
When in the top mapping page, the rotary
knobs edit pan and five sends. The top page is
indicated by the letters “PA” appearing in the
two-character LED.
While you can edit the various send levels using
the CS-10’s rotary controls, you have no access
to send mutes. You must control send muting
using the mouse.
By holding down the OPTION switch (F5) and
pressing the Up or Down Arrows, you can navi-
gate through plug-in control parameter pages,
and use the rotary knobs to edit the various
plug-in parameters.
To cycle through the Plug-In control pages:
◆ Up Arrow: Go to previous page
◆ Down Arrow: Go to next page
◆ OPTION (F5)+Up Arrow: Go to first page (LED
will display “PS” for pan plus five sends)
◆ OPTION (F5)+Down Arrow: Go to last page
(LED will display “Fx,” where x = last page)
After changing pages, the two-character LED
will show the current page symbols until a fader
is moved. The LED will then revert to showing
the fader’s current level in dB values.
Editing Sends and Plug-Ins with
the CS-10
On the JL Cooper CS-10 control surface, the
send and pan controls are in a center section
and not on a per-track basis. As a result, the
CS-10 uses the notion of the “focused” track.
The focused track is the one that the send and
pan controls will affect. This focused track is al-
ways within the currently selected bank.
When using the CS-10, the focused track is out-
lined in green in Pro Tools, while the target
track for plug-in editing is outlined in red. In the
event a track is both the focus of send or pan ed-
iting and the target of plug-in editing, the focus
takes precedence and the outline will be green.

the location.
