D-Command quick assign default eq/dynamics
Hi, I just switched to a D-Command ES from the artist controllers and am loving it. Forgive me if this is somewhere in a thread but I can't find it. The user manual mentions default eq and dyn can be 'quick assigned' but it doesn't say how. On the artist you just hit the eq button and it asks 'add eq?' and you push the rotary below it and it is added. Is there something similar on the D-Command?
Thanks |

Re: D-Command quick assign default eq/dynamics
So I think I worked it out, the default eq and dyn appear in the plugin page but at the top level so you don't have to page through all eq/dyn to find them. Iy is one more button press than with Eucon, I hope my finger can take it.

Re: D-Command quick assign default eq/dynamics
Hey Led,
This sort of touches on one of my questions (I'm about to buy a D-Command myself): I know that you can custom map plugins across the channel strips but I'm assuming the actual dynamics and EQ sections in the "master" section of the console can be used to map non-Avid plugins, right? I primarily use McDSP Channel G and would love for it to map there as opposed to across the channel strips. Thanks!

The McDSP Channel G was specifically designed to integrate easily with the Icon controllers and it works like a charm! I've done plenty of mixes with all tracks populated with Channel G and then you just mix like a console! With Channel G Compact not only do the parameters map perfectly but the knobs on the plugin UI are located in the same physical location as the D-Command. Most other channel strips map predictably and well, as do most eqs and comps. I use all three BX-Consoles the same way as Channel G, and you don't have to think about which tool to choose, you just mix. In addition you can display eq/dyn parameters on the rotary encoders in each channel strip and page through parameters 2 rows at a time, and you can also set the D-Command to show GR meters on the channel when you have comp parameters on the rotary encoders. So you could set up the console to have rotary encoders on multiple track all controlling the threshold and have GR meters displayed. Because any parameter assigned to the rotary encoders can be flipped to faders, you can adjust multiple channel comp thresholds super fast using faders. You get the picture. The D-Command is a sweet console and the prices are dropping fast.

Re: D-Command quick assign default eq/dynamics
Thanks a million! This is great. I’ve used a d-command before but not enough to know its nuances.
Thanks again.
