C – The Control Footwheel

The CONTROL Footwheel is a performance control used to modify the value of the
Active Parameter. An illuminated slot in the wheel’s face helps to identify the position
of the wheel. A 15-element LED bargraph to the left of the footwheel displays the
approximate value of the Active Parameter.

When editing values that change continuously, the action of the CONTROL footwheel
depends on the setting of the Analogue Mode parameter (SNAP, PASS-THRU, or
TRACK). When the Analogue Mode parameter is set to SNAP, the active parameter
will snap instantaneously to the setting of the footwheel. In PASS-THRU mode, the
parameter value stays constant until the footwheel passes through the current value. In
TRACK mode, the parameter value moves in the same direction as the footwheel (up or
down) until the value and footwheel positions are identical.

When editing parameters that have discrete values (such as the ‘LO-MED-HI’ Octave
parameter), the CONTROL footwheel will SNAP instantaneously to the value regardless
of the setting of the Analogue Mode parameter.

NOTES: The CONTROL footwheel will transmit the MIDI CC message that corre-
sponds to the active parameter.
