FC CONTROLLERS: CONFIG PAGE
PARAMETER Description
Hold Function Timeout
0.25–2.00 seconds
This sets the time limit before a Hold function is automatically red, beginning
from the moment the switch is depressed. When a Hold function is assigned,
a Tap function res if the switch is released before the press and hold timeout
elapses. See also "The Rules of Switch Timing" on p. 70.
Hold Function Mode
AUTOMATIC,
SWITCH UP
Normally, Hold functions re automatically after a timeout (above). With this
setting changed from AUTOMATIC to SWITCH UP, they wait for the switch to be
released, granting precise control over the timing of a hold function. Now, you
can use HOLD, for example, to change a Scene precisely on the downbeat.
FC Master Layout Menu
“Switch Combo
ENABLED/DISABLED
The Master Layout Menu (aka “MLM”, aka “Layout 9”) provides access to other
layouts. On the FM3, the MLM is normally assigned to the Hold function the
middle switch. However, a connected FC Controller will have a special "Switch
Combination" that can be used to show the MLM. This setting disables or
enables the switch combination. See your FC Owner's Manual for more.
Per-Preset Switch Overrides
ENABLED/DISABLED
Any FM3 preset can override the function of any footswitch in any layout. This
offers extreme flexibility, making it possible to handle exceptions easily in a
system where everything is normally global. This setting allows you to DISABLE
Per-Preset overrides so only the global switch functions appear.
See "The Footswitch Functions Guide" for more on per-preset functions.
