MANUAL

BUTTONS

PROCEDURE: BUTTON PROGRAMMING

We will set up a BUTTON to behave like a simple ON/OFF switch, or Latch Switch. Press the

BUTTON once and the Switch will

be on. Press the BUTTON again and the Switch will be off.

Programing Transport BUTTONS follows the exact same procedure.

TIP: This can be very useful to control the Mutes on your Audio/Sequencing program. Most Pro

and Semi Pro Audio/Sequencing programs will allow you the option to control various functions

of the program from an external controller, in this example, controlling the Mutes on your virtual

mixer. (See your Program’s manual for details.) Each BUTTON can behave like a Latch,

used in this Mute example (SWITCH MODE), or like a Momentary (PUSH MODE) switch. A Mo-

mentary switch will only function when the BUTTON is held down. This is very useful for the Fwd

BUTTON and Rew BUTTON in the Transport section.
