Chapter 7 Work in Layout mode 105
Mod/pitch wheel screen controls
When you add mod/pitch wheels to a layout, by default they are configured to receive the
following MIDI message types:
•
The first mod/pitch wheel is configured to receive pitch bend messages.
•
The second mod/pitch wheel is configured to receive modulation messages.
•
The third mod/pitch wheel is configured to receive aftertouch messages.
By default, modulation and pitch bend screen controls pass through the MIDI messages for
their common use—that is, mod wheels pass through MIDI modulation messages, and pitch
bend wheels pass through MIDI pitch bend messages. In most cases this is desirable so that
you can use them for their standard functions without any additional setup. If you want to use
these screen controls to control other parameters, choose “Do not pass thru” from the MIDI Thru
pop-up menu in the Screen Control Inspector.
Foot pedal screen controls
When you add a foot pedal to a layout, by default the first foot pedal you add is configured
to receive expression messages, and the second foot pedal you add is configured to receive
volume messages.
By default, expression pedal screen controls pass through the MIDI messages for their common
functions (expression or volume). If you want to use an expression pedal screen control to
control another parameter, choose “Don’t pass thru” from the MIDI thru pop-up menu in the
Screen Control Inspector.
Copy and paste screen controls
You can copy and paste screen controls using the standard OS X menu items and
key commands.
Note: You cannot copy a panel control and a shelf control at the same time.
