To enter the Executor keyword in the command line, use one of the options:
- Press MA + X16 | Exec
- Type Executor
- Type the shortcut Ex
Description
The Executor keyword is an object keyword used as a control handle for other objects.
The default function for Executor objects is Select. This means that calling executors without any function specified selects the object assigned to the executor. This selection is now also controllable with the 100 mm fader section.
If you apply a function or reference a property not supported by the Executor object, the command will be passed on to its child: key, fader, or the object assigned to the executor.

| Width | 1-5 | Executor width |
| Height | 1-4 | Executor height |
| Object | The object the executor controls | |
| Config | The executor configuration used by the executor | |
| TotalPrimaryAssignmentChanged | This is information only. See the description below | |
| TotalSecondaryAssignmentChanged | This is information only. See the description below | |
The four information settings are related to changes made in relation to the used executor configuration. Primary assignments are the assignments the executor has when the MA key is not pressed. The Secondary assignments are the assignments the executor has while the MA key is pressed. The two properties beginning with "Total" are for the entire combined executor. This is relevant when the executor is part of a combined executor with more than one executor in height and/or width. The information settings cannot be changed, they are automatically updated by the software.
For setting the executor assignments using the interface, please read the Assign Object to an Executor topic and the Executor Configurations topic.
