To set up a Control Surface, do the following:
1. In the Options/External Devices menu, click on the Add button.
2. Choose your device from the predefined device list. Set this to New Control Surface if
you do not see your device in the list. If set to New Control Surface, you may wish to
type in a Manufacturer Name and a Device Name in the appropriate fields. This will
make using the Control Surface easier.
3. Specify the device to which the Control Surface is sending and the device from which
it is receiving via Studio One. Select your MIDI device-driver name from the drop-down
menu for both Receive From and Send To.
4. You will not need to specify the MIDI channels your Control Surface will use, as control
surfaces use alternative protocols, such as Mackie Control, to communicate with
Studio One.
5. Your Control Surface is now ready for use in Studio One.
4.4.4 Custom Placement of Control Surfaces
If you are using multiple surfaces with motorized faders, you can customize the placement of
the fader banks so that channels in the Studio One Console are spread across your surfaces in
the desired order.
To customize this placement, click on Placement in the Options/External Devices menu after
adding your surfaces. All ungrouped surfaces will appear under the Ungrouped tab. To place a
surface in a group, select a Group tab, then click-and-drag the surface from the Ungrouped
area to the selected group area. To adjust the order of the grouped surfaces, click-and-drag
them left or right. Channels in the Console will then appear in order across the surfaces from
left to right.
