If the knob is to the left all the way, then the deck is assigned to fx unit 1, if it is to the left then it is on fx unit 2. If it is anywhere else then it is on both sets of fx. Or you could set the anywhere else (center) to be what they would normally be on (ie. fx 1 for left knob and fx 2 for right knob) and have the knob so that when it is rotated to the inside it is both and when it is rotated to the outside it is the opposite fx unit.[/quote] this sounds like someone else modified our TSI-- that functionality was never in this file. Are you suggesting it? [quote comment="16868"] Yea I am suggesting this, as in the article you mentioned that these knobs (filter knobs) are currently of little use and might benefit from a re-mapping. I often find that it I want to have deck A attached to fx 2, or have both on 1 fx unit or some combo of the above, clicking over to it with the mouse is time consuming.[/quote] [quote comment=""][quote comment=""][quote comment=""]

Could you go into a little bit more detail as to what you mean by this? Thanks!

Ean, I trust your instinct, so I have to ask: is there a reason why you are not using the soft-takeover feature? Also, suggestion: I have my gains set to knob/relative (110%).

That said, any chance that we can convince you to link your template for the Remote SL? The set-up you had for it in your vlog looked awesome, and there are not many alternative pre-made templates out there. Any help will be much appreciated :) Thanks again!
