and Disconnecting if necessary), open the ACT MIDI Controller property
page, and select a preset for your controller/surface (load the default
mappings).
To Open the ACT MIDI Controller Property Page
1. In the Controllers/Surfaces toolbar (Views-Toolbars-Controllers/
Surfaces command), make sure that ACT MIDI Controller appears in
the dropdown menu. If you can’t find it in the dropdown menu, you need
to add it in the Controllers/Surfaces dialog (see Connecting and
Disconnecting if necessary).
2. Click the Properties button that is in the Controllers/Surfaces
toolbar. You can also double-click the WAI display of the ACT MIDI
Controller plug-in.
Note: except for the buttons on the right end of the toolbar, the toolbar is for
display purposes only. To enable another controller/surface, use the
Options-Controllers/Surfaces command. To change the bank of tracks
that the controller/surface controls, use the buttons on the controller/surface
itself (or drag the WAI display). Use the dropdown menu on the toolbar to
choose what controller/surface the toolbar displays information for. Click the
Properties button in the toolbar to display the property page (interface)
of the currently displayed controller/surface.
