The Max, Min and Step Size values can be used to determine the sensitivity of the encoder or button, i.e. how many steps
or presses it takes to scroll the whole parameter range. When an encoder or button is first assigned, the Max and Min
values will probably be set to 1 and 0. This means that it will take one button press or encoder step to move the parameter
from minimum to maximum value. Unless the parameter is a switch-type (binary), you will want to edit the Max and Min
values. To make the control more sensitive, type in a higher Max value, e.g.:
With the above settings, it will take 100 encoder steps or button presses to move the parameter from minimum to
maximum value, allowing finer adjustment. The Max and Min values could be any two numbers you like e.g. 334 and 234,
but as long as the range (the difference between the two values) is 100, the effect of the encoder will not change. For very
fine control over a parameter, enter an even higher Max value:
Now the parameter being controlled will be scaled over 1000 steps. It is possible to swap the Max and Min values over so
that the Min value is larger than the Max value. This will cause encoders to have a reversed action, i.e. rotating them to the
right will decrease the parameter value and to the left will increase the parameter value. For buttons, it will cause them to
step down in value rather than up when pressed.
Note that the Step Size value has been 1 in each of the above examples. To make a parameter jump up or down in steps of
larger than 1 with each encoder step or button press, enter a higher step size:
With the above settings, the parameter will be scaled over 100 steps but each encoder step or button press will change
the value by 20 steps, meaning a total of 5 encoder notches or button presses will move the parameter from its minimum
to maximum value. With buttons, after the maximum value has been reached (or the highest value the Step Size allows), the
next button press will return to the minimum value and start the next cycle. Also with buttons, if the Step Size is set to 0,
the button becomes a ‘momentary’ type button. This means it will cause the parameter to go to its maximum value when
pressed and minimum value when released. This may be useful for e.g. quickly toggling an effect such as a beat masher
on/off in real time.
