HOTKNOB
The HOTKNOB is like an on-board Expression Pedal. It can be patched to control
one or any of number of parameters simultaneously. The HOTKNOB patch is
identical to the Expression Pedal patch – they work in parallel.
Press the HOTKNOB button to use the Knob. [HOT] is briefly displayed followed by
the parameter name if a single parameter is assigned (e.g. [MIX]) or [HOT+] if
multiple parameters are assigned.
Tip: H9 Control’s Ribbon also works in parallel with the HOTKNOB and Expression
Pedal. Program one and you’ve programmed all three.
Creating a HOTKNOB Patch
To enter HOTKNOB patch mode - press and hold the HOTKNOB button for 2
seconds. The HOTKNOB LED will blink at a slow rate to let you know you are in
the HOTKNOB patch mode.
Once you are in the HOTKNOB patch mode Press the X, Y, or Z parameter button
to select the parameters you want to assign to the HOTKNOB.
When the selected parameter’s name is displayed Press the HOTKNOB button to
set the minimum value [MINVAL]. Turning the Knob will update the display with
the parameter value to be assigned as the [MINVAL] for this parameter's
HOTKNOB patch. When you stop turning the Knob the display will revert to
[MINVAL] and alternately flash between MINVAL parameter name and the current
MINVAL parameter value.
Press the HOTKNOB button again to set the maximum value [MAXVAL]. Turning
the Knob will update the display with the parameter value to be assigned as the
[MAXVAL] for this parameter's HOTKNOB patch. When you stop turning the Knob
the display will revert back to [MAXVAL] and alternately flash between [MAXVAL]
parameter name and the current [MAXVAL] parameter value.
Pressing the HOTKNOB switch again will display the current parameter's name.
Press the X, Y, or Z parameter button to select additional parameters to assign to
the HOTKNOB.
