The Channel Properties
Most of the features described here can be accessed via the Channel properties. Channel prop-
erties are global settings that apply to a particular Sound, Group, or to the Master independ-
ently of which Plug-ins are loaded in its Plug-in slots.
Channel properties are organized into four sets. Similar sets of properties are available for all
channels (Sounds, Groups, and Master): Input properties (unavailable for the Master), Output
properties, Groove properties, and Macro properties.
You can access Channel properties and their parameters via the same procedure as for Plug-
ins, both in the software and from your controller. Please refer to section
Channel Properties, Plug-ins, and Parameter Pages in the Control Area
for a detailed descrip-
tion.
The Input properties, Output properties, and Macro properties are covered in the following sec-
tions. For more information on the Groove properties, please refer to section Groove.
