Flip Group
When set (to any value other than “none”), this number defines a counterpart for Flip
Mode. By setting a fader and an encoder to the same Flip Group, for example, they are
coupled. To set “none”, enter 0.
Exclusive
Only for supported control surfaces: when the Exclusive checkbox is enabled, the
assignment deactivates all other assignments that have Exclusive disabled (for the same
control). This lets you limit the overwriting of a mode-less assignment to particular
modes.
Example: Faders normally control volume. If you want to have a mode where faders
control send level, enable Exclusive.
Class
This pop-up menu can be used to define the assignment class or, put another way,
what type of destination parameter is controlled. The following section explains all
available Class options.
Mode Change
The Mode Change option allows you to use an assignment to activate a mode in a
Zone. An additional Mode pop-up menu appears below the Class menu, offering
different Modes you can switch to. As an example: The Assignment buttons on a Logic
Control choose several Modes for the encoders.
Note: The Mode that is recalled also depends on the option set in the Value section’s
Mode menu (see the “Mode” section on page 680). The following table explains how
the different Value Modes take effect.
Value Mode option Explanation
Direct The stated Mode is activated in the Zone it belongs to. It is not necessary for
the Mode Change assignment to be located in the same Zone.
Example: While Shift is held down, button X switches the encoders to EQ view.
The Shift and X buttons are in Zone A, but the encoders are in Zone B.
All other value modes: Only the Modes of the Zone the Mode Change
assignment is located in can be recalled. The destination parameter minimum
is this Zone’s first Mode, and the maximum is the Zone’s last Mode.
Toggle A button might toggle between the Zone’s first Mode and the stated Mode
Relative Useful for stepping up and down through Modes of a Zone using two buttons,
or for choosing a mode using an encoder.
Rotate Useful for stepping through all modes using a single button. A jog wheel, for
example: Off
→ Scrub → Shuttle → Off
