Avid S1 Custom Mapping

[Chevron]

I am just learning to use custom mapping with my newly arrived S1. One thing I have not worked out yet is with Softube's Console 1 channel strip and mapping buttons.

When selecting INSERT on the S1 and then navigating to Page 3 which displays the EQ parameters, it is actually laid out how I want it. But when selecting EQ on the S1 - the layout is similar but has different assignments for the buttons.

For example Knob 1 on INSERT / Page 3 controls Low Gain with IN switching the channel EQ in and out - perfect. Knob 1 on EQ Page 1 controls Low Gain but IN controls shelf and bell curves.

So I've tried to copy the INSERT Page 3 layout to a custom map for EQ but I can't find the EQ in and out parameter to assign?

Insert options are up to the manufacturer.
EQ options are defined by Avid for EQ.
They won't all be the same.

You should just use Inserts. There's an option in Eucontrol specifically for this problem on General tab.
"Show EQ/DYN plug ins on surface as Inserts..."
Check the box.

Thank you for the info on Insert and EQ options.

If I understand you correctly, if I create a custom map in Inserts and then check the "Show EQ/DYN plug ins on surface as Inserts" preference my Insert custom map will show when i press the EQ button on the S1?

Close.
If you have a custom map, when you select the plugin, the Channel Tab will auto go to Insert (with the custom map) instead of EQ -- which gives you more options than EQ.

Got it thanks.
