03. controllInG PluG-Ins WIthautomaP unIversalThe following sub-sections of this guide focus on using the Nocturn and Automap Universal to control plug-ins. However,much of the information is relevant to controlling sequencer mixers and the Automap MIDI Client. Therefore, we suggestbecoming familiar with plug-in control before moving on to the next sections of this guide.3.1 automaP-WraPPed PluG-InsAn Automap-wrapped plug-in will appear in the list of plug-ins in your sequencer with ‘(Automap)’ after its original name.Load the Automap-wrapped version of a plug-in into your sequencer to allow Automap control over it. The plug-in will lookexactly the same as the original version but with an additional Automap border at the bottom of the window.The Automap border allows access to Automap functions as follows:Automap logo switch: This indicates which plug-in currently has ‘Automap focus’ i.e. which plug-in can currently becontrolled from the Nocturn. It will be red for the plug-in that has Automap focus and white for all other plug-ins. Click itwhen it is white to turn it red and give Automap focus to that plug-in. It will then automatically turn white on the plug-in thatpreviously had Automap focus. Note that if ‘Automap Focus Follows Plug-in UI’ is enabled, simply selecting a different plug-inwithin your sequencer, with the mouse, will change which plug-in has Automap focus.Learn switch (crosshair): This indicates whether learn mode is currently active or not. It will be red when either LearnOnce or Learn Latch is active and white when learn mode is turned off. When it is red you can click it to disable learnmode. When it is white you can click it to activate Learn Once. Learn mode is described in more detail in section 3.6.Novation Logo: When clicked, this opens up a drop-down menu from which you can access some Control Map options.More information is given on these in section 3.3.
