Novation ReMOTE SL Compact User Manual page 35

The MOTU DP Automap template (template 34) must be selected on the SL Compact when using it in Digital Performer
Automap mode. Once you have followed the above set up instructions the SL Compact will automatically switch to the MOTU
DP Automap template and will do so each time you subsequently start Digital Performer. Whilst using the SL Compact in
Digital Performer Automap mode, you can switch to any other template on the unit (for example to control hardware MIDI
devices or Automap-wrapped AU plug-ins using the Automap Universal template) and then switch back to the MOTU DP
Automap template to control Digital Performer again.
It is important to ensure that 'ReMOTE SL Compact port 1' is selected as the input for all MIDI and Instrument tracks
in Digital Performer so that Automap data on ports 2 and 3 does not get routed to soft-synths and MIDI devices. To
allow specific input ports to be selected you need to turn on Multi Record by selecting it from the 'Studio' menu in
Digital Performer.
The Automap Universal Server software allows transport and tempo control over any ReWire host application. If you are
using the Automap Universal template to control Automap-wrapped plug-ins in Digital Performer then it is also possible to
use the transport controls on the SL Compact to control the transport in Digital Performer, which supports ReWire.
Additionally ReWire allows tempo control over Digital Performer from the SL Compact regardless of which template is
selected. For this to work you must enable the Automap Server as a ReWire input in Digital Performer. There are two ways
to do this:
1. Create a stereo audio track, set its input to 'Automap Universal Transport:Dummy channel L 1-Dummy channel R 2' and
record arm it.
2. Create a stereo aux track and set its input to 'Automap Universal Transport:Dummy channel L 1-Dummy channel R 2'.
In Digital Performer Automap mode, the SL Compact can be used to control the mixer as follows:
Control panning, sends and track faders
The encoders can control track levels, panning and send levels. The ENCODERS GROUP SELECT SWITCHES determine what
the encoders control. ENCODERS GROUP A controls track panning. ENCODERS GROUP B controls send levels, along with
the SPEED DIAL, which is used to select the send bank. ENCODERS GROUP C controls track levels.
The buttons can be used to control solos, mutes and record arming. The BUTTONS GROUP SELECT SWITCHES determine
what the buttons control. BUTTONS GROUP B1 controls solos. BUTTONS GROUP B2 controls record arming. BUTTONS
GROUP B3 controls mutes.
