Param mode, activated either by pressing V-Sel 16 or by pressing any of the inserts which are currently assigned, brings the
parameters of the plug-in on the currently selected track insert into the plug-in editor. The plug-in parameters are accessed using
V-Sels and V-Pots 9, 10, 11 and 12. The upper row of the scribble strip displays any parameter switch options controlled by the
V-Sels, and the lower row on the scribble strip displays the parameters controlled by the V-Pots. In
P Pa ar ra am m
mode, V-Pot 16
scrolls between the pages of plug-in parameters. When a new page is accessed, the current page is displayed momentarily (along
with the number of parameter pages) in the top row of the scribble strip, in Channels 9 and 10.
V-Sel 7 and 8 are always assigned to the

functions of the plug-in.
Auto Set Mode
AUTO SET mode allows you to change the automation status of the DAW tracks via the console V-Sel switches. In this mode, the
V-Pots have no function and the V-Sels no longer control their corresponding DAW track.
For MCU DAWs,
AUTO SET assigns the four Logic MCU automation commands to V-Sel switches 1-4, repeating them on V-
Sels 9-12. These modes are labelled on the bottom row of the scribble strip directly above the V-Pot. The Automation Mode on
the currently selected channel will be indicated by all the indicator LEDs illuminating around the V-Pot whose V-Sel switch
corresponds to the active automation state. To change mode, simply operate the V-Sel switch for the new mode. Selecting the
OFF state from an active mode requires the READ switch to be selected twice. Use the appropriate global modifier key in
conjunction with the V-Sel switch to toggle the automation state of all tracks.
Note the above explanation refers to changing automation modes in Logic. AUTO SET may not be fully supported by
other MCU controlled DAWs. Please consult the relevant documentation to determine if automation control supports the
same controller codes as Logic.
In Pro Tools, AUTO SET functions as follows:
When AUTO SET is pressed, the bottom row of the digital scribble strip for Channels 1-6 and 9-14 displays the Pro Tools
automation modes, while the top row of the digital scribble strip displays the currently active Pro Tools track names. When a
channel’s DAW SEL key is pressed, the track name in the scribble strip is replaced by a display of that track’s current automation
mode. The track’s automation mode can now be altered by pressing the V-Sel buttons below each of the automation mode labels.
You will notice that the red
AUTO LED above that channel strip indicates the automation status of the DAW track in that
channel: the LED flashes when any of the write modes are selected and stays lit when a track is actively writing automation data.
The green AUTO LED indicates if the trim state has been selected for any of the write modes (Pro Tools HD only).
Either set of V-Sel buttons (i.e. those found in Channels 1-6 or 9-14) can be used to set the automation mode on any active DAW
track. The automation mode on a range of tracks can be set together by selecting multiple SEL keys. This is done by holding the
left-most DAW SEL key and pressing the right-most SEL key within the desired selection. In AUTO SET mode, the channel
faders retain their control of the DAW track faders and the mode can safely be left enabled in order to change state whilst Pro
Tools is in Play.
Please note that there are two SEL buttons in the Matrix channel. The other SEL button is located further up the channel
strip, above the digital scribble strip, and is concerned with the desk’s analogue routing, not DAW control.
Note that in Pro Tools, automation of send level and pan functions can be accessed by pressing
AUTO SET while in
FLIP mode (see Page 66).
