Configuring External Controller Settings
You use the Controller Settings dialog box to configure your system so that it can communicate
with supported fader controllers. You can use the Controller Settings dialog box for your device
to configure several aspects of the controller’s behavior:
• You can map the Command palette functions of your choice to the fader controller buttons.
For information on mapping Avid Artist Series buttons, see “Customizing Avid Artist Series
Controls” on page 902.
• Depending on your controller, you might be able to customize the maximum jog or shuttle
speed. You can view footage at the maximum speed when you turn the jog/shuttle wheel all
the way to the right or the left position.
Because you cannot map all the Command palette functions to supported controllers, you might
want to create multiple Controller settings in the Settings list of the Project window for different
sets of editing functions. For more information, see “Duplicating Settings” on page 1342 and
“Selecting Among Multiple Settings” on page 1344.
To configure your Avid editing application for a controller and open the Controller Settings
dialog box:
1. Double-click Controller Settings in the Settings list of the Project window.
The Controller Settings dialog box opens.
