Mapping

Mapping is how you connect controls to parameters: knob macros (what a turn sends or drives) and external MIDI (what incoming CCs or notes control).

Modulation with LFOs is covered in Modulation.

Knob macros (Perform)

Each of the 32 knobs has four macro rows (0–3). A macro can:

• Send MIDI (CC, program change, NRPN, SysEx, …)
• Control a rack device parameter
• Adjust an S32 or CV16 LFO parameter (knob → LFO, not LFO → knob)

In edit mode, all four rows are visible on the left; macro indicator bars on the right show live value and LFO modulation per row:

Row	Example in screenshot
CC	CC number, channel, MIDI outputs
Device	Rack, device name (e.g. Arp), parameter (e.g. Gate)
sLFO	Target LFO and parameter name
RPN	MSB/LSB, channel, MIDI outputs

Open a macro for editing

1. On Perform, Turn the encoder select a knob.
2. Press Select (short) Select → edit mode (macro rows 0–3 on the left, indicator bars on the right).
3. Turn the encoder Turn the encoder to highlight a macro row (e.g. row 2).
4. Press Select (short) Select again → macro parameter grid for that row.

TIP

Press Back (short) Back leaves the grid; Back again exits edit mode. Grid edits commit when you leave the macro grid.

Knob macro badge

When a knob macro drives a device or LFO parameter, the target row in that parameter list shows a knob-macro badge (filled dots + knob number):

TIP

To change or clear the mapping, edit the macro from Perform (not from the device list).

External MIDI mapping

Map incoming MIDI (keyboard, DAW, foot controller) to a device parameter or LFO parameter in the active project:

1. Open the parameter list (device or LFO editor).
2. Highlight the parameter.
3. Hold Back and Select together Hold Select + Back → Options → External Mapping.
4. Send the note, CC, or 14-bit CC you want from external gear.

Mapped rows show an external badge (triangle + CC number or note name):

Remove external mapping

Hold Back and Select together Hold Select + Back on the mapped row → Options → Remove Mapping.

INFO

One target, one source

Each parameter (or macro modulation slot) accepts one of:

Source	Configured from
Knob macro (Perform)	Macro grid
External MIDI	Parameter list → External Mapping
LFO modulation	Parameter list or macro Options → Assign LFO — see Modulation

WARNING

You cannot stack external mapping and LFO on the same device parameter, or external mapping and a knob macro on the same target.
