USER GUIDESURFACE CONTROLS

The MC Control can control applications running on a second computer, referred

to in this guide as a workstation. Press the WORKSTATION key to attach the MC

Control to another workstation. You must first use EuControl to create a list of

workstations that this key switches between (see Workstations on page 42).

While attached to a second workstation, your Mac’s keyboard and mouse can be

configured to control that workstation and not your Mac (see page 51).

The BANK and NUDGE keys perform the identical actions on the combined set of

tracks.

4.5 Knobs

Eight touch-sensitive knobs surround the Touchscreen. Each is a continuously

rotating knob that adjusts parame ters such as pan and aux send levels. The

knob has a built-in switch allowing it to be pressed from the top. This is called

the Knob Top key and is typically used to access sub-menus but also to turn pa-

rameters on/off.

A knob set is an array of knobs used by EuCon applications to control plug-ins,

EQs, dynamics, aux sends, etc. When the MC Control first starts, the Top Level

Knob Set is displayed on the Touchscreen which shows all eight knob sets be-

side the eight knobs. Press a Knob Top to select that knob set and enter the MC

Control menu system.

Some knob sets can display another knob set called a sub-menu. For example,

the Inserts knob set shows the names of every plug-in inserted on the track, one

plug-in name per knob. Pressing a plug-in’s Knob Top key displays its parame-

ters on the knobs for editing. This new knob set is a sub-menu of the Inserts

knob set. Press the BACK key to return to the top of the Inserts knob set. Since

sub-menus can be more than one level deep, this can be accomplished by press-

ing the BACK key repeatedly.
