Editing MIDI Events in the Event List

 Num = 48 (Switch Fader): This will send MIDI events to a particular output number

(Val) on a cable switcher (see the Environment chapter for details). You first need to
connect a cable between a track instrument and the cable switcher in question.

 Num = 49 (Go to screenset): This event selects a screenset. Val determines the

screenset number.

 Num = 50 (Project Select): This event will switch projects on a MIDI data filer/player.

Val determines the stored project number.

 Num = 51 (Go to Marker): When this event is sent, playback will jump to another

marker. Val determines the marker number.

 Num = 52: This meta event stops playback.

Meta events can also be generated by fader objects in the Environment.
