31If the assigned parameter is a continuous type e.g. filter cutoff, the button can be used to step up through theparameter range. With the min value set to 0 and step value set to 1, you can simply adjust the max value to determinethe number of button presses it takes to step up through the whole parameter range. If you want the button action tobe reversed so that it steps down through the parameter range, swap the max and min values around.Setting the step value to 0 will give the button a momentary type action. This means it will cause the parameter to goto its maximum value when pressed and minimum value when released. This may be useful for e.g. quickly toggling aneffect such as a beat masher on/off in real time.Pots and Sliders: The pots and sliders have a fixed sensitivity so the difference between the max and min values willhave no effect over them. As with encoders, if the min value is made larger than the max value, the action of the potor slider will be reversed i.e. it will change the parameter value from min to max as you rotate it anticlockwise (pot) ormove it from top to bottom (slider). If you want a pot to have its 0 position in the centre, enter a negative number forthe min value.7.9 SAVING A CONTROL MAPWhen you have finished clearing controls, assigning parameters and adjusting control settings, you can save the controlmap. To save it as the default control map, which loads when you open an Automap-wrapped instance of that plug-in, usethe ‘Set As Default’ option.It is possible to save the control map but not make it the default control map. An example of where this would be useful iswhen using Native Instruments’ Reaktor, where you may use different control maps for the different ensembles availablewithin Reaktor and a single default control map is not useful. Use the ‘Save As…’ option to save a control map as a*.automap file to wherever you like on your computer.Whether you use the ‘Set As Default’ or ‘Save As..’ option to save a control map, the name, max value, min value, stepsize value and parameter assigned to each control will be stored. The instance name is not stored. Instance names for allAutomap-wrapped plug-ins in a sequencer project are stored automatically with the instance control maps when you savethe project and will be recalled when you next load it.To load a previously saved control map you must first load an Automap-wrapped instance of the plug-in it was created with.This will automatically load the default control map for that plug-in. Ensure the plug-in has Automap focus and then use the‘Open…’ option to load the previously saved control map.
