Getting Started

Connecting your iControls controller system
Connect the iControls to your Mac/PC via the USB port.
1
Choose a USB port on your Mac/PC and insert the wide (flat) end of
the USB cable. Connect the cable's small jack end to the iControls. Your
Mac/PC should automatically "see" the new hardware and notify you
that it is ready to use.
Assign the MIDI messages to iControls

Refer to page 10 for "Assign the MIDI functions with "iMap "

Controls

Faders

There are nine faders on iControls. Fader 9 is the generally-accepted
control for volume. You can assign any one of 119 different MIDI CC
numbers to any fader, although we recommend keeping Fader 9 set to
volume (CC07), for volume control. CC numbers 120 to 127 are non-
linear parameters, and cannot be controlled by a linear fader.

Control Buttons

There are eighteen control buttons. You can assign different CC
numbers as well as MIDI channel to any button.
