Editing Screen Control Parameters in Edit Mode

In Layout mode, you edit basic screen control parameters that are constant throughout
the entire concert. In Edit mode, you can edit screen control parameters for a specific
patch or set. You can also override concert- and set-level mappings for an individual
patch or set.

Overriding Concert- and Set-Level Mappings

By default, mappings you make at the concert level (to parameters and actions) take
precedence over mappings to individual patches or sets in the concert. If you map a
screen control to a parameter at the concert level (for example, to Master Volume), that
screen control cannot be mapped to a parameter or action in a patch or set, unless you
override the concert-level mapping.

Similarly, mappings you make at the set level take precedence over mappings for any
patches in the set. If you map a screen control to a parameter at the set level (for example,
to an effect on a set-level channel strip), that screen control cannot be mapped to a
parameter or action in a patch in the set, unless you override the set-level mapping.

If you try to map a screen control that is mapped at the concert or set level, text appears
in the Screen Control Inspector informing you that the screen control is mapped at another
level, and the parameters in the Screen Control Inspector are dimmed. You can override
the concert- and set-level mappings for an individual patch, and then map the screen
control at the patch level.
