In the example above, you would click the fader screen control, click Out 1-2 in the left
column of the Parameter Mapping browser, and then click Volume in the second column
of the browser.

Screen controls can also display visual feedback about parameter values, including volume
level. For example, you can also map the Output 1-2 Volume fader to a level meter screen
control and have the level meter display the overall volume level while you are performing
live. In this case, you would map the level meter to Level in the second column of the
browser, rather than to Volume.

When you map a screen control at the concert level, you cannot map the same screen
control at the patch or set level unless you override the concert-level mapping. For
information about overriding concert-level mappings, see

Adding Concert-Wide Effects

You can add concert-wide effects such as reverb and delay using auxiliary (aux) channels.
When you choose a bus from the Send slot on a channel strip, a corresponding aux

apply to every channel strip sending its signal to the aux.
