Result

Value option

The value is sent as one byte.

One Byte

The value is sent in two bytes, with the MSB (most significant byte)
first.

MSB/LSB

The value is sent in two bytes, with the LSB (least significant byte)
first.

LSB/MSB

The value is sent as Binary Coded Decimal in four bytes, in the order
1, 10, 100, 1000.

BCD 4 LSB

The value is sent as Binary Coded Decimal in four bytes, in the order
1000, 100, 10, 1.

BCD 4 MSB

The value is sent in two nibbles, with the least significant nibble
first.

2 Nibbles L

The value is sent in three nibbles, with the least significant nibble
first.

3 Nibbles L

The value is sent in four nibbles, with the least significant nibble
first.

4 Nibbles L

The value is sent in two nibbles, with the most significant nibble
first.

2 Nibbles M

The value is sent in three nibbles, with the most significant nibble
first.

3 Nibbles M

The value is sent in four nibbles, with the most significant nibble
first.

4 Nibbles M

The value is sent in two nibbles, the most significant nibble first;
the nibbles are sent in ASCII format for the hex value. For example,
the value $7F (= 127 in decimal) will be transmitted as a 7 and F.

2 ASCII M

Same as 2 ASCII M, but in 3 nibbles.

3 ASCII M

Same as 2 ASCII M, but in 4 nibbles.

4 ASCII M

The unused bits of the transfer in nibbles (X in 0XXXNNNN) are sent with the information
at the relevant positions of the SysEx strings. If you want to transfer these deleted bits,
you need to enter zeros in the SysEx string.

Special Functions

Several behaviors and commands enhance the use of fader objects.

Temporarily Grouping Faders

If you drag to select or Shift-click to select several faders and move one of them, all
selected faders move proportionately.

As long as all faders remain selected, their relative positions are retained (even after one
or more of the faders has reached its minimum or maximum position).

• Option-dragging any fader in the group changes all values in a linear fashion. (The

absolute value differences are maintained.)
