Euphonix Media Application Controller Operation Manual MC Preference Settings

This Touchscreen controls six global preferences, each of which may be selected inde-
pendently (descriptions pertain to the item when selected):
Workstation tracks knobset changes: Workstation is aware of which knobset
is selected and displays appropriate controls.
Open plugins on workstation when editing: Plugin windows can be opened
from the surface.
Close plugins on workstation when finished editing: Window closes when
leaving Knobset.
Attention most recently selected track: Changes the Soft Knobs to control
the knobset of the most recently selected track. In effect, this links the Wave
key to the Channel Select key.
Select most recently attentioned track: Selects the track with the knobset
most recently assigned to the Soft Knobs. In effect, this links the Channel Se-
lect key to the Wave key.
Select channel by touching fader/joystick: Touching a fader assigned to a
specific channel on the MC, CM408T module (System 5-MC only), or joystick
panner, selects that channel in the DAW.
Touch the Wrap-Around Banking button to toggle wrap-around banking on/off.
When enabled, the Bank/Nudge buttons continuously bank through the tracks avail-
able, moving from the last track to the first. When disabled, the banking stops at the
highest track (with the Bank Right button) and the lowest track (with the Bank Left
button). This applies to standalone MCs (with a four-fader bank) and System 5-MCs
(with CM408T channel strips).
