Flop Mode
A variation of Flip mode, Flop mode transfers controls from
any of the top five rows of rotary encoders to the bottom row
of rotary encoders, allowing you to bring any encoder control
within easy reach from the mix position.
In Flop mode, the affected row of encoders moves to the bot-
tom row of encoders, the Flip switches for both affected rows
are lit, and the encoder displays for both rows appear in yel-
low.
To transfer controls from any of the top five rows of encoders to
the bottom row of encoders:
Hold the Start key (Windows) or Control key (Mac) and

press the Flip switch that corresponds to the encoder row.
To exit Flop mode:
Press either of the lighted Flip switches.

When D-Control is in Make Inactive mode or Assign mode,
it is temporarily taken out of Flop mode, but the Flip
switches remains lit. When you exit Make Inactive mode or
Assign mode, controls return to their flopped positions.
Make Inactive Controls
The Make Inactive controls are used to make tracks, inputs,
outputs, sends, or inserts inactive. Each switch puts D-Control
into a temporary Make Inactive mode in which elements are
made inactive or reactivated. The switch flashes while Make
Inactive mode is in effect.

Inputs Inactive Switch
The Inputs switch invokes Inputs Inactive mode and displays
channel inputs in the bottom row of encoders. The By-
pass/Mute/Pre switch on the bottom encoder toggles the input
inactive and active.
Outputs Inactive Switch
The Outputs switch invokes Outputs inactive mode and dis-
plays the main channel outputs in the bottom row of encoders.
The Bypass/Mute/Pre switch on the bottom encoder toggles
the output inactive and active.
Sends Inactive Switch
The Sends switch invokes Sends Inactive mode and displays
the channel's sends on its encoders. The Bypass/Mute/Pre
switch on each encoder toggles the corresponding send inac-
tive and active.
Inserts Inactive Switch
The Inserts switch invokes Inserts Inactive mode and displays
a channel's inserts on its encoders. The Bypass/Mute/Pre
switch on each encoder toggles the corresponding insert inac-
tive and active.
To toggle an input, output, send, or insert active/inactive:
Make sure the channel is showing the top-level view for the

element you want to make active/inactive.
