Select the parameter you want to map.
The screen control is mapped to the selected parameter. You can continue mapping
additional screen controls by clicking them in the workspace and then choosing
parameters in the Parameter Mapping browser. Using the Parameter Mapping browser,
you can map parameters that are not visible in plug-in windows.
You can also map screen controls to MainStage-specific actions and to AppleScript
scripts. For more information about mapping screen controls, see “
Note: If you change the channel strip setting for a channel strip to which you have
mapped screen controls, you will lose any parameter mappings.
You can also edit velocity sensitivity for a channel strip, create controller transforms,
and filter various MIDI messages. For information about editing channel strips, see
