5.4 Inits
Inits (short for “Initializations”) allow for initializing parameters/modlines when a preset is loaded. Inits
consist of two parts: a mode and a value.
Mode
The mode defines how the init behaves. The following options are available:
None
No initialization value will be output.
Once
(Hosted mode only)
Outputs the init value the first time the preset this is placed on is loaded. Switching to this
preset again will not output the init value.
This applies per session —!“Once” will only reset by quitting the Advanced Editor and
reopening it.
Always
Outputs the init value every time the preset this is placed on is loaded.
Value
Sets the value to output when the init is triggered. This value will be passed through the modline it
is placed on.
5.5 Display Modes
Display modes are used to define how the SoftStep’s display behaves when interacting with the keys.
The following display mode options are available in the SoftStep Advanced Editor:
None
Has no effect on the SoftStep display. Stepping on a key with None selected will show the current
preset name.
Always
Displays the key name whenever the key is pressed. The key prefix and parameter value are not
used in this mode.
