If you use two or more Console
1 Fader units, it's important to be
able to number them in a logi-
cal order. To set the order, go to
Settings -> Rearrange Faders and
press the Track Selectors on the
consoles in the order you want
them to be rearranged. The track
selectors will indicate which Con-
sole 1 Fader unit is which. Number
1 will have the first (leftmost) track
lit, number 2 will have the first two
tracks lit, and so on.
The order of the consoles is
remembered in Console 1 Fader's
settings on your computer and will
remain until you change it again.
Please note, that the physical order
of the USB connectors in no way
interferes with the settings you
make on this page.
This menu lets you choose if you
want to be alerted about compat-
ibility changes between your DAW
and Console 1 Fader. If you always
work in the same DAW, you may
find it more relaxing to turn these
notifications off.
The three media control buttons
labeled Assignable can be al-
located to do what you specify.
They are labeled Go to start, Play/
Pause, and Go to end, but you can
choose any remote command you
find useful.
Here's how you do that. Press Set-
tings, scroll down to Define new
assignment and press Ok. Scroll
to the desired button and press Ok.
A window pops up and it asks you
to enter a key command. Type that
command and click on Ok. Done!
Please note, that the DAW must be in focus (last app used)
when entering shortcuts .
Select Auto Detect DAW to let
Console 1 fader automatically
find the right commands for your
DAW.
If you hit Settings + Shift, you will enter the glorious Las Vegas
mode . It's a special test-mode, where faders and LEDs are danc-
ing around . This is a service function only . You exit Las Vegas
mode by pressing Solo/OK or Mute/Cancel .
Special info for Mac OS users
If the OSD won't allow you to assign the Assignable
buttons to DAW functions, you may have to tweak your
System Preferences. Click on Security & Privacy and
choose Privacy. In the left column, go to Accessibility
and tick the box next to the Console 1 On-Screen Dis-
play.app entry on the right side. You may have to press
the small unlock icon first to accomplish this.
By ticking
this box,
you're allow-
ing Console
1 Fader to
control your
computer.
