Automation Bank Operation

The Two Functions of the Buttons: Enables and Mutes
In the Automation Bank, the buttons above the faders have
two different functions, they act as Fader “Write Enables” and
as Mutes.

➤ When the buttons are acting as Fader Write Enables,
pressing the button turns on the LED, and turns on the
fader. The moving the fader sends MIDI data only when the
fader is enabled.

Pressing the button again turns the LED off, and the fader
below the button no longer sends MIDI data.

➤ When the buttons are acting as Mutes, pressing the
button turns the LED on and sends a MIDI controller with a
value of 0. The controller number is the same as the fader
below the button.

Pressing the button again turns the LED off, and sends a
MIDI controller with a value equal to the position of the
fader.

In other words, say FaderMaster Pro is controlling an audio
channel (of MIDI controlled VCAs, for example). Pressing the
button Mutes the channel, pressing the button again returns the
channel to the level of the fader.
