6. In the Control Name column, select QuickControl 1.
7. On your remote control device, move the control that you want to use for the
first quick control.
8. Select the next slot in the Control Name column and repeat the previous
steps.
9. Click OK.
NOTE
In addition to using the Learn function to set up the table in the Quick Controls
section, you can modify the values manually. The available options are identical to the
ones available for the Generic Remote device.
RESULT
The quick controls are now associated with control elements on your external
remote controller. If you move a control element, the value of the parameter that is
assigned to the corresponding Quick Control changes accordingly.
The remote controller setup for Quick Controls is saved globally, that is, it is
independent of any projects. If you have various remote controllers, you can save
and load several Quick Control setups using the Export and Import buttons.

Activating Pick-up Mode for Hardware Controls
Pick-up Mode allows you to change configured Quick Control parameters without
accidentally modifying their previous values.
Often, the parameter settings of your Quick Controls are initially different from the
settings of your hardware controls, for example, when the hardware controls control,
different Quick Controls on different tracks. In this case, you will notice that moving
a hardware control changes the previous value of a parameter in a way that it is
initially set to the zero position, before it is changed. Thus, you always lose your
previous setting of the parameter.
To avoid this, you can activate Pick-up Mode. This has the effect that when you
move your hardware control, you can only change the parameter once the control
reaches the parameter’s previous value. The control “picks up” the parameter at the
value to which it was last set.
NOTE
This only applies to hardware controllers whose controls use specific ranges.
