D-Control Guide64
Global Controls
The Global controls are used to apply commands that affect
multiple channels in various ways.
Do To All and Do To Selected Switches
The Do To All and the Do To Selected switches on D-Control
can be used in two different ways: to apply actions to multiple
tracks in a Pro Tools session, and to change the display mode
of multiple channel strips on D-Control.
The Do To All and Do To Selected switches can follow mo-
mentary or latching behavior.
When single-pressed, their effect applies only to the next
operation.
When held, they apply to all operations carried out while
being held.
When double-pressed, they latch on and flash until pressed
a second time.
