Feat. Req: Stay on same page when switching track

[Frank Kruse]

Hi,

when adjusting EQ on any other parameter page than the first one it would be great if the Control wouldn't revert to the first page when I select a different track.

Example:

I´m adjusting the filters on avid channel-strip which are on page 2. When I select a different track the control switches to page one so I have to select page 2 again.

I´d like an option that makes control stay on what ever page was selected when going to a different track with the same plug-in.

Thanks,

Frank.

That's interesting, cause on a Mix that's how it works and as you say is very handy.

Unfortunately not so on the control.

Just another example of the brilliant and clever programming to sell you a Mix and a Control!

It's modular, but that doesn't mean you can live with one or the other

The more I use the Control I actually wonder why they named it "Control" ;-)

The reason I wish it would work better on the control is not so much the money saving part. It´s the much smaller foot-print of ONE controller.

Personally I think a Mix and a Transport is really the way to go. They're not the type of controllers that you can ditch your keyboard, so to me the extra buttons/touch screen you get on a Control isn't really worth it. A Transport actually has a lot of soft keys given the number pad, and the transport part of it is way better than the Control's. Price wise the Mix/Transport is not that much more than a Control plus you get 8 faders with knobs.

Anyhow, to each their own.

I wanted a surround panner so I went with the control. But I´ll give it another few weeks. Might ditch it for a mix. But only if I can set up a "preview" soft key on it without a transport.

[JR Fountain]

Gotchya. I guess you're sticking with the Control then, no soft keys with a Mix.

I've spent a lot of the time programming the touchscreen buttons to make a real keyboard pretty much unnecessary, complete with arrow key/spacebar/tab mappings.. but for very rare situations I still have one on a custom drawer under the desk.
