Foot Switch Commands
The Foot Switches buttons in the middle of the Transport/Utility window allow the two momentary foot switches which
can be connected to the Matrix to have any USB or listed DAW command assigned to them. Both the HUI and MCU protocols
c
ontain dedicated codes for use with foot switches which actuate the DAW transport Play and Record functions. These are
shown in the command list as Play Foot Switch and Record Foot Switch.
In addition, there is an extra SSL command which has been created specifically for use with the foot switch: Artist Talkback
S
witch enables the talkback function of the Artist button to be assigned to a foot switch.
Note that the foot switch must be held down to keep talkback open.
KVM Hot Key
The KVM Hot Key, located towards the top left of the Transport/Utility window, does not appear on the Matrix console.
The button is only used on setups where there is more than one computer connected to Matrix. The KVM Hot Key can be
programmed with a command to a USB KVM switch, telling it to switch between computer ports. When programmed, it outputs
a USB command whenever its layer is selected using the console’s DAW LAYER SELECT buttons, telling the KVM switch to
select the USB port connecting to the computer on which the layer’s DAW or MIDI device is hosted. The specific commands
used by your router can be found in the router’s operating manual.
