Control|24 Guide 114
The DEFAULT Switch
The DEFAULT switch serves as a shortcut alter-
native to using the channel encoder knobs to re-
move a plug-in.
To remove a plug-in with the DEFAULT switch:
■
While pressing DEFAULT, select a plug-in.
Targets and Focus
Pro Tools supports multiple open plug-in win-
dows. Control|24 provides two ways of navigat-
ing and accessing parameters of these windows:
target plug-in and controller focus.
A plug-in window can be any combination of
target plug-in, controller focus, or both.
Controller Focus
The plug-in window currently selected for edit-
ing by Control|24 is called the controller focus,
and it is identified by a thin blue outline around
the top panel of the window.
There are two ways to change the controller fo-
cus status between multiple open plug-in win-
dows. One way is to click on a window with the
computer’s mouse, but this method for navigat-
ing between windows has no specificity in terms
of track or plug-in type (and needs the window
to be visible in order to click on it).
You can select between multiple open plug-in
windows by channel and plug-in type by using a
specific channel’s EQ, DYN, or INSERTS
switches. This method enables you to navigate
systematically by track or effect type, that can
save time and keep you from having to look
away from the Control|24 surface or leave the
monitors’ sweet spot.
The PLUG-IN Switch
The PLUG-IN switch, in the Window section,
opens and closes the current controller focus
window. See “Opening Plug-In Windows” on
page 115 for more details.
Target Status for Plug-Ins
Target functions are used to manage and navi-
gate between multiple plug-in windows in a dif-
ferent way than is employed in manipulating
controller focus.
The Target Window
The Target plug-in window is the one that will
be replaced by the next window opened, unless
certain related key commands are executed at
the same time.
The Target status of plug-in windows is indi-
cated by the state of the window’s bullseye icon.
The bullseye symbol—consisting of several con-
centric circles—resides in the status bar of the
plug-in window.
Target status of a plug-in window is indicated by
the appearance of a red center in that window’s
bullseye icon. Any open plug-in windows other
than the Target window will have no color in-
side their bullseye icon.
This method removes plug-ins—and any
associated automation data—without dis-
playing any warning or option to cancel.
Use this power-user feature with caution!
