Extenders will require a custom file as there are no combinations listed
|
|
at this time. The best way is to start with the mc.device file and copy it
|
|
to a new name such as xt+mc.device and then edit that file. It is best to
|
|
name the file with the order the devices are expected to be used in as
|
|
the position of the master device is specified in this file.

The two lines of interest are:
|
|
<p>
|
|
<pre>
|
|
>Extenders value="0"/>
|
|
>MasterPosition value="0"/>
|
|
</pre>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Add these two lines if they are not present. The <code>Extenders</code>
|
|
value is the number of extenders used and should not include the master in
|
|
that number. That is, it should be the total number of units minus 1. The
|
|
<code>MasterPosition</code> value is the position from left to right where
|
|
the master unit (with the master fader) is, starting at 0. So if there are
|
|
three surfaces, <code>MasterPosition</code> with value 0 would be master
|
|
on the left, <code>MasterPosition</code> with value 1 would be master in
|
|
the middle and <code>MasterPosition</code> with value 2 would be master on
|
|
the right.
|
|
</p>

|
|
If the <code>MasterPosition</code> value does not properly match the
|
|
physcal position and MIDI port, the master fader and global controls will
|
|
not work. The master unit will act like an extender.
