Channel strip mode
Pressing the CHAN key makes all Aux sends avail-
able simultaneously for the channel selected by the
channel
SEL keys (Native mode only).
In addition, this mode also offers dedicated EQ
controls in Native mode.
In HUI and Mackie Control modes, this enters MIDI
Controller mode; see below).
MIDI Controller Mode
When the CHAN key is pressed in HUI or Mackie
Control emulation mode, the encoders are placed into
MIDI Controller mode.
In MIDI Controller mode, the CHAN indicator is lit
and the encoders send out Control Change messages
on MIDI port 4, channel 1.
Encoder 1 is mapped to MIDI Controller 0, encoder 2
to MIDI Controller 1, and so on to encoder 24, which
is mapped to MIDI Controller 23.
You can assign these MIDI controller messages to
parameters of DAW plug-ins, etc. Often it is possible
to place a DAW parameter into a “learn mode” where
it will sense incoming controller messages and make
the assignment for you.
Values set in this mode are memorized when the
mode is exited, and restored when the mode is re-
entered.
In Native mode, press and hold the F-KEY and press
the CHAN key to enter this MIDI Controller mode.
Bank Switching
The US-2400 is capable of controlling up to 192
DAW channels via eight 24-channel banks as shown
by the indicators located below the master fader. Pressing the BANK + key focuses the control surface
on the next higher bank of 24 channels.
Pressing the BANK – key focuses the control surface
on the next lower bank of 24 channels.
Holding F-KEY while pressing either BANK – or
BANK + changes the control surface focus by one
channel in the specified direction. The US-2400’s
motorized faders automatically move to the correct
physical positions to represent their DAW-controlled
channels.
NOTE
The HUI and Mackie Control protocols do not transmit
bank indicator information, so the US-2400 bank indica-
tors are only operational in Native mode.
