The faders will normally be assigned to Channels 1 to 8, plus Master, and this will be confirmed
by the labels below the faders. Higher-numbered channels and additional mixer features (such
as Send levels) can be found on additional pages. You can use the Bank buttons ( Shift + MIDI ,
Shift + Mixer by the faders) to scroll ‘sideways’ and select a further set of eight consecutive
channels.
Mute and Solo buttons
The Impulse 49 and 61 models are equipped with per-channel Mute/Solo buttons
3
below
each fader. These are also represented on-screen and reflect the status of the physical buttons.
The Mute/Solo Select button
13
toggles the function of these buttons between Mute and Solo.
In Mute mode (LED off), the button will mute the mixer channel it is controlling; in Solo mode
(LED on), pressing the button will mute all mixer channels except that one.
Mute and Solo buttons – alternative assignments
As well as acting as either per-track Mutes or Solos, any of the eight buttons on Impulse 49
and 61 may be assignable to perform other functions (depending on your DAW). Click on a
button in the Mapping Editor window, and select an alternative function from the list in the Edit
Assignment pane. Note that the list includes both alternative fader functions and alternative
button functions.
Track Up/Down
Track Up/Down are shifted functions of the two Octave buttons
9
. They allow you to ‘step’ the
fader(s) up or down one track or instrument within your DAW at a time. In the case of Impulse
49 and 61, the currently active DAW track will step one track in this manner while the eight
faders remain assigned to the current bank of eight (see Bank Up/Down below). In som DAWs,
selecting a new track in a different back of eight will cause the controls to switch automatically
to a new bank, although in other DAWs it will be necessary to bank manually using the Bank
Up / Down buttons (see below)
On Impulse 25, the single fader can be stepped through consecutive DAW channels in the
same manner by successive presses of Track + .
Bank Up/Down
This feature is only available on Impulse 49 and 61. Bank Up/Down are shifted functions of the
fader Mixer / MIDI buttons
12
. Bank Up/Down perform the same function as Track Up/Down ,
but act on eight faders/buttons at a time. For example, if you have Faders (and buttons) 1 to
8 assigned to DAW channels 1 to 8, and press Shift + Mixer (i.e., Bank Up ), the faders and
buttons will now control channels 9 to 16.
