Operation Switch (Page 3)

PanBot (Pan on Lower Encoder)

Determines whether Pan con-

trols are displayed on the bottom encoder of each channel,
even when another type of controls is displayed on the upper
encoders.

Encod (Encoder Order)

Determines whether inserts, sends, and

pan controls are displayed in order from top-to-bottom or bot-
tom-to-top on D-Control rotary encoders.

ApTrgt (Target Track from Application)

Determines whether se-

lecting an Insert or Send on-screen focuses its track on the
D-Control Main Unit.

Faders (Faders On/Off)

Temporarily turns off D-Control faders

to prevent fader movement when monitoring a mix.

ChanWn (Channel Window Display)

Determines whether dis-

playing plug-in or send parameters (by pressing an encoder Se-
lect switch) on D-Control opens the corresponding plug-in or
send window on-screen in Pro Tools. Also determines whether
the Channel Select switches (in the Dynamics or EQ sections)
change the channel display of multi-mono plug-ins.

When this preference is set to “Yes,” the on-screen display

of plug-in and send windows changes to reflect the state of the
control surface.

When this preference is set to “No,” the on-screen display of

plug-in and send windows does not change to reflect the state
of the control surface.

Select (Select Switch Latch Mode)

Determines whether chan-

nel Select buttons follow latching or exclusive-or (non-latch-
ing) behavior when in Select mode.

Operation Switch (Page 4)

SoloFc (Focused Track Follows Solo)

Determines whether a so-

loed track is automatically focused in the Focus Channel Strip
(this function works in both Select and Focus modes)

2KbPan (Two-Knob Panning)

Toggles linking of front and rear

pan controls in surround panner windows to facilitate
left-right motion in the surround field.

TchVal (Touch Display of Parameter Values)

Determines the

display of parameter values when faders or encoders are
touched. This can be set to On, Off, or NoVol, which turns off
the display of volume values in the main fader only.

CFTrks (Custom Faders Display Hidden Tracks)

Determines

whether tracks that are hidden in Pro Tools are displayed or
hidden in Custom Fader modes. Tracks that are hidden in
Pro Tools but shown in Custom Faders cannot be Selected or
Record enabled.

Brdcst (Broadcast)

Determines whether the XMON monitor-

ing system is in Broadcast mode, which prevents AFL and PFL
solo modes from changing the XMON Control Room Input
source.

Trk/Ed (Link Track and Edit Selection)

Toggles the Options >

Link Track and Edit Selection option, which automatically se-
lects a track or range of tracks when a selection is made in the
track’s timeline.

Operation Switch (Page 5)

Import PIMaps (Import Plug-in Maps)

Opens “Choose a map-

ping file” dialog in Pro Tools.

Export PIMaps (Export Plug-in Maps)

Opens “Save Plug-in

Mapping As” dialog in Pro Tools.

SplFcs (Focus VCA Master When Spilled)

Causes a VCA Master

track to be focused in the Focus Channel Strip when its slave
tracks are “spilled,” or displayed in Custom Faders by pressing
the Byp/Mute switch on the VCA Master.

FilBnk (Always Fill Channel Strips When Banking)

Toggles the

preference setting that maximizes the number of channels dis-
played in Normal mode when banking. When selected, bank-
ing follows end stop behavior.

FillCF (Always Fill Custom Faders When Banking)

Toggles the

preference setting that maximizes the number of channels dis-
played in Custom Faders when banking. When selected, bank-
ing follows end stop behavior.

Trnspt (Transport Mode)

Toggles between Dual and Single

Transport mode. Dual Transport mode activates the second
set of transport controls in the section labeled “Machine
Transport.” In Single Transport mode, only the transport con-
trols marked “Pro Tools Transport” are active.

Operation Switch (Page 6)

AsnMtx (Assign Matrix Enable)

Determines whether Assign

Matrix or standard Assign mode operation is used for assign-
ing inputs, outputs, inserts and sends.

MtxJst (Matrix Select Area Justification)

Determines whether

items in the Assign Matrix Select Area are in order from
top-to-bottom or bottom-to-top on D-Control rotary encoders

PIClmn (Plug-In Menu Column Width)

Determines the number

of plug-in names displayed per encoder row in the Assign Ma-
trix

IOClmn (I/O Menu Column Width)

Determines the number of
