Control Surface Setup

Â
Global—displays
all
Objects
of
certain
type(s)—MIDI
or
Bus
channels,
for
example—
independent
of
their
usage
by
tracks.
They
merely
need
to
be
defined
as
Environment
Objects
to
be
visible.
The
Object
types
to
be
displayed
are
defined
by
another
parameter
which
is
not
shown
in
the
parameter
list.
If
a
control
surface
supports
switching
to
Global
View,
it
will
also
allow
you
to
define
which
Objects
to
display.
The
Track
Mixer
window
contents
automatically
follow
the
state
of
the
Global
View
buttons.
It
also
sets
Object
filters
in
accordance
with
the
Object
classes
activated
in
Global
View.
Â
Arrange—
Arrange
View
is
similar
to
Mixer
View,
with
one
exception:
Namely,
if
multiple
tracks
play
back
via
the
same
Environment
Object,
all
of
these
tracks
will
be
displayed
on
separate
channel
strips.
This
is
helpful
when
used
in
conjunction
with
the
nudge
commands,
for
example.
The
Hide
button
status
is
taken
into
account,
with
tracks
hidden
in
the
Arrange
window
also
being
hidden
on
the
control
surface.
These
modes
are
mutually
exclusive,
so
if
you’re
in
one
View
mode,
you
cannot
be
in
the
other.
It
is
important
to
note
that
the
Mixer
vs.
Global
View
modes
is
a
property
of
the
Control
Surface
Group,
not
a
global
setting.
So
one
group
can
display
busses,
while
the
other
shows
tracks,
for
example.
Mixer
View
Fader
Bank
This
parameter
affects
the
Track
View
mode
by
shifting
channels
by
the
defined
amount.
Imagine
that
your
control
surface
has
eight
channel
strips,
and
you
were
looking
at
audio
tracks
1
to
8
in
the
Arrange
window.
These
would
appear
as
channels
1
to
8
on
the
control
surface.
Using
the
Mixer
View
Fader
Bank
parameter,
you
could
offset
this
view
by
a
defined
number
of
channels,
to
see
audio
tracks
3
to
11,
for
example.
Global
View
Fader
Bank
The
Global
View
Fader
Bank
parameter
performs
much
like
the
Mixer
View
Fader
Bank,
but
only
applies
if
multiple
Object
types
are
enabled.
When
single
Object
types
are
enabled,
there
are
separate
fader
bank
parameters
(these
aren’t
displayed
in
the
parameter
list).
Track/Channel Parameters
The
track
or
channel
parameters
define
the
behavior
of
a
control
surface’s
channel/
track
controls.
Track
Parameter
Defines
the
current
track
assignment
behavior
for
the
encoders.
Options
are:
Â
Volume—encoders adjust channel volume.
Â
Pan—encoders adjust channel panorama position.
Â
Mode—encoders adjust/select channel mode (mono/stereo).
