• Encoder Row: The encoder row is used to control eight of the plug-in parameters at time. The
encoder row select button will change the display to show the names of the parameters on the
top row and the values of the parameters on the bottom row. Turning an encoder will also auto-
matically select the encoder row for viewing on the screen. Use the left screen up/down buttons
as described above to select the parameters under control by the encoder row.
•
Button Row 2: Neither the button row 2 nor the button row 2 select buttons are currently imple-
mented.
• Knob Row: The knob row is used to control eight of the plug-in parameters at time. The knob
row select button will change the display to show the names of the parameters on the top row
and the values of the parameters on the bottom row. Turning a knob will also automatically select
the knob row for viewing on the screen. Use the left screen up/down buttons as described above
to select the parameters under control by the knob row.
•
Drum Pad Row: As described above, pressing the Drum Pad Row select button navigates
back one level. From the plug-in parameters it will go back to the plug-in list. From the plug-in list
it will go back to the track list.
The Drum pad buttons simply send midi note data to the MIDI out port 1 and are not part of the au-
tomap.
Tempo Adjust: You can adjust Tracktion’s tempo for the current section of the edit. Pressing tap tempo
once opens the tempo change for the current cursor position. Tapping it will then set the tempo. The
Tempo LED will always ash at the current tempo. This is accomplished by Tracktion sending midi clock
to the ReMOTE SL. Note that for this to happen, the ReMOTE SL must be congured to receive MIDI
clock. This is done on the ReMOTE SL by setting MidiClk on page two of the globals menu to EXT-
AUTO.
Alternately, you can set the tempo for the current position by turning the data encoder with tempo se-
lected. This will open the tempo change for the current cursor position and directly edit the tempo.
Using the Frontier Design Group Tranzport
Tracktion can be controlled with the Frontier Design Group Tranzport wireless controller.
Enable the MIDI input and output pair connected to the Tranzport Hardware in the MIDI Settings Tab.
Select “Frontier Design Group Tranzport” in the External Controllers Settings Tab.
With the Tranzport control surface selected, set the corresponding MIDI Input and Output ports in the
Properties panel.
See Appendix A for a list of Tranzport controls and their associated Functions.
