Mapping is a simple process that involves the
following tasks:
Edit MIDI Maps. Touch to select faders, en-
coders, and switches, then assign custom MIDI
Continuos Controller or switch values to match
the target device, as needed. See "Editing MIDI
Maps" on page 49.
– and –
Use Presets to Save and Recall Maps. Save and
recall up to eight custom MIDI maps in Com-
mand|8 Presets. See "Presets to Save and Recall
Maps" on page 51 for more information.
Controls in Stand-Alone Mode
Faders Each fader can be mapped to any MIDI
Continuous Controller (CC). Default is
Volume (#07). Start and end MIDI values, as
well as custom names, can be specified for each
fader.
Encoders Each encoder can be mapped to any
CC. Default is Pan (#10). Start and end MIDI val-
ues, as well as custom names, can be specified
for each encoder.
Switches In stand-alone mode, 32 of the Com-
mand|8 switches are available in both pages of
each preset.
Programmable switches in stand-alone mode
The channel Mute and Solo switches are
premapped to CC 14 (mute) and CC 15 (solo);
Channel Select switches are not premapped.
