‘ProgPORT’ and ‘ComnPORT’ are special options that allow the port routing for the control to follow one of two common
routing settings that can be accessed from the Template menu (Program Port and Common Port). The advantage
presented by these options is that if a number of controls are set to either ‘ProgPORT’ or ‘ComnPORT’ then you can
change the port routing for all of those controls by editing a single parameter, rather than editing the individual setting for
each control. More information on the Program Port and Common Port routing settings can be found in the section 15.
MidiChan (MIDI Channel): This option sets the MIDI Channel on which the data will be transmitted. This can be set to a
value between 1 and 16, or to ‘ProgCHAN’ or ‘ComnCHAN’. Like the ‘ProgPORT’ and ‘ComnPORT’ options for the Ports
setting, ‘ProgCHAN’ and ‘ComnCHAN’ are special options which allow the MIDI Channel setting for the control to follow one
of two common MIDI Channel settings which can be accessed from the Template menu (Program Channel and Common
Channel). More information on the Program Channel and Common Channel routing settings can be found in section 15.
CC Num (Control Change Number): This allows you to set the Control Change (CC) number for the control to a value
from 0 through 127. You can toggle the display format of the CC Num setting between decimal and hexadecimal by
pressing the ROW-SELECT button for the upper left-hand row of buttons.
Response: This setting is only available for pots, sliders and the expression pedal. Where available, it can be found on
the second page of control settings so scroll up to access it. It allows you to set the response of the control to one of the
following:
JUMP: After selecting a template, if the current position of a control does not match the value of the control stored with
the template, the control value will “jump” from the stored value to match the position of the control as soon as the control
is operated.
PICK-UP: After selecting a template, if the current position of a control does not match the value of the control stored
with the template, the control will not have any effect when operated until its position matches the value stored with the
template.
TEMPLATE: The control will follow the PotMode setting in the Template menu, which can be set to ‘JUMP’ or ‘PICK-UP’. The
advantage presented by this option is that the response of some or all controls in a template can be changed by editing a
single parameter, rather than editing the individual setting for each control.
GLOBAL: The control will follow the PotMode setting in the Global menu, which can be set to ‘JUMP’ or ‘PICK-UP’. The
advantage presented by this option is that the response of some or all controls in multiple templates can be changed by
editing a single parameter, rather than editing the individual setting for each control.
BtnType (Button Type): This setting is only available for buttons, drum pads and the sustain pedal. Where available, it can
be found on the second page of control settings so scroll up to access it. It should be set in conjunction with the Low Value
and High Value for the control to determine how the button works. The options are as follows:
NORMAL: The Low Value is sent when the button is pressed, nothing is sent on release.
MOMENTRY: The Low Value is sent when the button is pressed and the High Value is sent when the button is released.
TOGGLE: The Low Value is sent when the button is first pressed, nothing is sent on release. The High Value is sent on the
next button press, nothing is sent on release. The Low and High Values will be sent alternately on further button presses.
This setting is useful when you want to control a bi-state parameter such as Track Solo On/Off. Remember that if you set
DispType to ‘ON/OFF’, the Low Value is sent for the ON state and the High Value is sent for the OFF state. This means you
will need to adjust the Low Value and High Value settings for the control such that the Low Value is the one which causes
Solo to turn on and the High Value is the one which causes Solo to turn off, otherwise the labelling will be incorrect on the
ReMOTE ZeRO SL displays.
STEP: If this option is selected then an extra setting, StepVal (Step Value), will appear next to BtnType. With the ‘STEP’
option, the value sent each time the button is pressed will step from the Low Value to the High Value in steps whose size
are determined by the StepVal setting. When the High Val is reached the next button press will cause the Low Val to be
sent and the value will step up again on subsequent presses. Note that the High Value is always sent before returning
to the Low Value, even if it takes a jump less than the step size to reach the High Value. For example if a button had the
