Topic: Arc control for ANY fader in Total Mix?

I would LOVE for the rotary encoder on the Arc controller to be assignable to any fader (within Total Mix)!

I bought it for that reason, and was very disappointed to find out that this doesn't seem to be an option.

Am i missing something? Although this would seem to be quite a basic function, it doesn't seem to be there.

If not, is there's anyway of building this into an update, that would be great!
(I'm still on a trusty Fireface 800)

(The ideal scenario would be either to be able to use the snap keys as a way of assigning the rotary encoder to a particular fader OR  to be able to use two of the snap keys as a way of scrolling left and right between faders, for which the rotary encoder would then have control.)

Otherwise, i'll have to consider selling the Arc, and seeing what i can do with a HUI controller.

Aside from this - Love you RME; such great design and product support.
Many thanks.

Sorry, but that function will not be added.

MC, thanks for getting back to me.

So am i right in thinking that the rotary encoder can ONLY control the Main Outs fader, and nothing else?

Thank you again, MC.

.....and there is NO WAY to make it control any other faders within Totalmix?

continued thanks for your support.
