APPING
The Plugin Controls panel is used to assign external control of the currently selected plugin or the plugin that’s
focused in the plugin pane. This mapping applies also to plugins in detached panels. Plugin controls are mapped to
all Waves plugins in groups of eight variable and eight discrete plugin parameters at a time. Use the Next/Prev
buttons to move between pages.
A SuperRack Session can have up to 64 racks, each containing up to eight plugins. Since every plugin has several
parameter controls, remote control of so many different variables could be a complex task and would require you to
re-map MIDI links each time the configuration changes. MIDI mapping is simplified in SuperRack by using a matrix
that sits between the plugin and the MIDI controller. This matrix assigns key parameter control knobs and buttons
to fixed matrix positions so that MIDI assignments always make sense, regardless of type of processor. For
example, when dynamics processors are being used, the matrix usually assigns the first position to Threshold, the
second to Ratio, the third to Attack, and so forth. With EQ processors, the first variable position is usually Input
Gain, followed by Band One Gain, Band One Frequency, etc.
Plugin controls that are currently under MIDI control are
outlined in red, as shown below.
