-<p>
-  Encoders are showing up more frequently on controllers. However, they use
-  the same MIDI events as Continuous Controllers and they have no standard
-  way of sending that information as MIDI events. Ardour 4.2 has implemented
-  4 of the more common ways of sending encoder information.
-</p>
-<p>
-  Encoders that send the same continuous values as a pot would are not
-  discussed here as they are already supported by <code>ctl</code>.
-</p>
-<P>
-  Encoders as this page talks about them send direction and offset that the
-  DAW will add to or subtract from the current value.
-</p>
-<p>
-  The 4 kinds of encoder supported are:
-</p>
-<ul>
-<li>
-  enc-r:  On the bcr/bcf2000 this is called "Relative Signed Bit". The most
-  significant bit sets positive and the lower 6 signifcant bits are the
-  offset.
-</li>
-<li>
-  enc-l: The bcr2000 calls this "Relative Signed Bit 2". The most
-  significant bit sets negative and the lower 6 signifcant bits are the
-  offset. If you are using one of these two and the values are right but
-  reversed, use the other. This one is the one the Mackie Control Protocol
-  uses.
-</li>
-<li>
-  enc-2: The bcr2000 calls this one "Relative 2s Complement". Positive
-  offsets are sent as normal from 1 to 64 and negative offsets are sent as
-  2s complement negative numbers.
-</li>
-<li>
-  enc-b: The bcr2000 calls this one "Relative Binary Offset". Positive
-  offsets are sent as offset plus 64 and negative offsets are sent as 64
-  minus offset.
-</li>
-</ul>
-<p>
-  If the wrong one is chosen, either the positive or negative side will act
-  incorrectly. It is not really possible to auto detect which one the
-  controller is using. Trial and error is the only way if the specification
-  of the controller is not known.
-</p>
-<p>
-  Many controllers have more than one choice as well, check the manual for
-  the surface.
