<h2>Control Surface Set Up</h2>

is recalculated and if feedback is turned on, the values of each

+ strip's controls are sent (or refreshed) as well. This will also
+ refresh the Master feedback setup.
</p>
<p>If /set_surface is not sent, the default values are used:
<ul>
<li><em>Bank Size</em>: 0 - No banking (or infinite bank size).</li>
- <li><em>Strip Types</em>: All strip types except hidden.</li>
+ <li><em>Strip Types</em>: All strip types except hidden and special.</li>
<li><em>Feedback</em>: Off.</li>
<li><em>Fader Mode</em>: 0 - gain in dB</li>
</ul>
</p>
<h3>strip_types</h3>
<p>
- Strip Types are coming soon... check for more info sometime. For now
- just use 0 (or anything else) as this is ignored. I don't know the bit
- order just yet, but it will work similar to feedback below. Strip Types
- will determine What kind of strips will be included in a bank. This would
- include: Audio, MIDI, busses, VCAs, Master, Monitor and hopefully
- hidden or selected strips.
+ strip_types is an integer made up of bits. The easy way to
+ deal with this is to think of strip_types items being worth a number and
+ then adding all those numbers together for a value to send.

<h3>feedback</h3>
<p>Feedback is an integer made up of bits. The easy way to
deal with this is to think of feedback items being worth a number and
then adding all those numbers together for a value to send.
</p>
- <ul>
- <li>
- 1 - feedback values of controls in strips.
- </li>
- <li>
- 2 - Send meter values (not coded yet).
- </li>
- <li>
- 4 - Send timecode (not coded yet).
- </li>
- <li>
- 8 - Send Bar and Beat (not coded yet).
- </li>
- <li>
- 16 - Enable master section feedback (not coded yet).
- </li>
- </ul>
-<p>
- So using a value of 17 would turn on feedback for strip and master
- controls, but leave meters, timecode and bar/beat feedback off.
