Set screen controls to show the hardware value
By default, screen controls show the value of the parameter the control is mapped to. In some
cases, for example, when the screen control is assigned to a foot pedal or when the screen
control is mapped to multiple parameters, it may be better to show the value of the hardware
control assigned to the screen control.
Set a screen control to show the hardware value
1 Select the screen control in the workspace.
2 In the Screen Control Inspector, click the Attributes tab.
3 Select the Show Input Value checkbox.
Set parameter change behavior for screen controls
You can set the behavior for saving parameter values for screen controls in individual patches.
This is useful, for example, when the default for saving parameter values is set to Reset, but you
want certain screen controls (for example, concert- and set-level screen controls) to keep their
current value when switching patches.
Set the behavior for saving parameter values in a patch
1 Select the patch.
2 Select the screen control for which you want to set the parameter change behavior.
3 In the Attributes tab of the Screen Control Inspector, choose the parameter change behavior for
the screen control from the “When a patch is changed and screen value diers from saved patch”
pop-up menu:
•
To have the screen control use the default behavior set in MainStage preferences:
Choose Preference.
•
To preserve changes to parameter values when you change patches: Choose Keep.
•
To return values to the last saved value: Choose Reset. When this value is chosen, you should
save the concert after making any changes you wish to keep to the patch, before selecting
another patch.
•
To have the screen control use the last received value from the physical control assigned to it:
Choose Match.
When you choose an item from the pop-up menu, a brief description of its function appears
below the menu.
Important: If you set the behavior for saving parameter values in a patch to Reset, parameter
values are also reset when you switch to Layout mode.
