Select the fader, encoder, or switch you want
2
to program by doing any of the following:
• To select a fader, move the fader. (See "Pro-
gramming Faders" on page 50 for fader de-
tails.)
• To select an encoder, rotate the channel 1
encoder and scroll through the list of pro-
grammable switches until the Encdr (En-
coder) names appear, then scroll to the
desired encoder 1–8. (See "Programming
Encoders" on page 50 for encoder details.)
• To select a switch, press any progammable
switch (see "Programming Switches" on
page 51 for switch details).
Make sure the name of the fader, encoder, or
3
switch you want to program is displayed in the
lower row of the LCD above channel 1.
To set the MIDI channel:
Rotate the channel 3 encoder for Chan until
the desired channel is displayed (default is chan-
nel 1).
To set the CC#:
Rotate the channel 4 encoder for CC# until
the desired value is displayed.
To set a Lo or Hi MIDI Value:
Rotate the channel 5 encoder to set a MIDI Lo
1
Value (0–127).
Rotate the channel 6 encoder to set a MIDI Hi
2
Value (0–127).
To program a switch for momentary or latching:
Select the switch to edit.
1
Rotate the channel 7 encoder (Mode) to
2
choose Latch or Momen (momentary).
50 Command|8 Guide
To set a fader or encoder for single or double
precision:
Select the fader or encoder.
1
Rotate the channel 7 encoder (Mode) to
2
choose Single or Double.
To name a control:
Select the MIDI preset and control you want
1
to name.
Rotate the channel 8 encoder (Name). This
2
displays the Name parameters in the LCD.
Rotate encoder 2 to scroll and select lower-
3
case, upper-case, or numerics for the first charac-
ter of the custom name.
When the desired character is displayed, ro-
4
tate encoder 1 to move to the next character (its
cursor flashes). Repeat for the remaining charac-
ters to enter your custom name.
Programming Faders
Each fader can be mapped to any MIDI contin-
uous controller. Each fader defaults to a unique
MIDI CC number corresponding to Volume
(#07). Assignment can be changed to any other
CC number. Start and End MIDI values, as well
as custom parameter names, can also be speci-
fied for each control.
Programming Encoders
Each encoder can be mapped to any MIDI con-
tinuous controller, and defaults to Volume
(#07). Encoders support velocity sensitive edit-
ing, and can be custom named.
