APPENDIX E: USING THE MIDIPLUS FIT CONTROLLER
The FIT controller is a fully integrated fader bank for the eMotion LVl. It features 16 touch-sensitive motorized channel faders and
a touch-sensitive motorized master fader. Each fader has a corresponding clickable rotary encoder.
Hardware Setup
Connect the host computer and the FIT controller with a USB cable. Start LV1, then the FIT controller. It will launch in the LV1 mode.
Software Configuration
1. In the System Inventory page, select the FIT controller from the Controls drop-down menu.
2. Click on the Gear symbol to access the MIDIPLUS FIT control panel.
3. Choose input and output ports from the drop-down menus.
4. Select which LV1 mixer (Mixer 1 or Mixer 2) will be controlled by the MIDIPLUS FIT faders.
When “Standalone” is selected, there is no correlation between the layer selected by the
controller and the layer selected in the Mixer window.
5. In the eMotion LV1 “Sends on Faders” mixer mode, the channel faders control the level of
the aux send, not the channel itself. Select “Follow Aux- Sends Flip” to enable controller
faders to follow this behavior.
Refer to Mixer > Aux Modes > Sends on Faders for more about using large faders to control
aux sends.
6. Use the three “Custom Function” drop-down menus to assign actions to the controller’s
Record, Stop, and Play buttons. By default, these three buttons are assigned to Next Scene,
Save Session, and Alt. With the drop-down menus you can assign many other functions to
the buttons.
7. The “Knob Mode” maps the rotary encoder knobs to either pan or gain control.
Troubleshooting
If the FIT controller cannot control the eMotion LV1, try this:
1. Make sure the USB cable is connected and the power is turned on.
2. Make sure you have configured your LV1 as described above.
