AUtoMAP tEMPLAtE oVERVIEW
When in Automap Mode (Led On), a unique template is used. This template is separate from the built in 32 templates
in advanced mode. All highlighted hardware controls displayed in the image below are available for controlling software
parameters via Automap.
The following controls can be assigned to either the Automap Port or to the keyboard port and are thus are special
controls when using Automap Mode.

Sustain pedal
•
Expression pedal

Drum pads

When switched out, they are routed to the same destination as the SL MkIIs keyboard. When switched in, they are routed
to the Automap client and therefore omitted from the keyboard destination.
P1 Up / Down
buttons - scroll through pages of an Automap mapping.
P2 Up / Down
buttons - scroll through presets of an Automap plug-in. Preset navigation will only work where a plug-in
uses the host preset navigation system, rather than it’s own built-in one.
Row Select
buttons are used to display the adjacent rows’ controls on the SL’s LCD screen. For example, pressing the
upper right Row Select button, the parameter names and values assigned to the upper right row of buttons is displayed
on the LCD.
SPEED DIAL
The
speed dial
knob has 2 functions in Automap Mode.
Speed Dial mode:
The
speed dial
can be used to control any on-screen parameter that can be altered using the mouse.
Simply move the mouse cursor over the parameter you want to change then rotate the knob to control it.
This process can be used for e.g. altering parameters on a soft-synth, controlling mixer parameters in your sequencer,
selecting an option from a drop-down menu or resizing a window. The Automap Server software must be running for
this function to work.
Preset mode:
Press and rotate the knob whilst held down to select different plug-in presets. Preset navigation will only
work where a plug-in uses the host preset navigation system, rather than it’s own built-in one.
