You can also use your computer’s keyboard to control elements of the Torq interface using t he same method
as MIDI Learn above. Simply right- click (CTRL-click for Mac) on a control on screen, then pre ss a key on your
keyboard. That key will then be assigned to the sel ected control. The same method for changi ng and clearing
MIDI assignments described ab ove also works for keyboard assignments.
< Assigning Buttons to Knobs or Sliders
If you so desire, you can assign a MIDI button/key or a key on your comput er’s keyboard to a knob or slider
in Torq’s interface. When doing this, pressing the MI DI button or key will cause the knob or slider ’s value to
toggle between an assignabl e minimum and maximum value. For exampl e, assign the “X” key on your computer
keyboard to the Low EQ knob. Turn up the EQ to +6 using the mouse, the n press the “X” key on your keyboard.
The EQ will jump to 0. Press “X” again, and t he EQ will jump back up to +6.
< Assigning Knobs or Sliders to Buttons
Conversely, you could assign a MIDI knob or slider to one of Torq’s buttons. When doing th is, the button will
turn on anytime the knob or slider is turne d past its halfway point (outputti ng a MIDI value greater than 64). The
button will turn back off when t he knob or slider is moved lower than its halfw ay point.
