Zynthian V4: how to set function of 4 encoders?
Hi @piattica , could you be more specific? Do you mean what happens when rotating the encoders, pushing the encoders, or the additional 4 switch buttons?
what happens when rotating the encoders and pushing the encoders
I’m not 100% sure if it answers your question, especially because you as the seasoned user you are might already be aware of it.
I see the four encoders as an integral component of the Zynthian UI itself. Here the encoders fulfill context dependent tasks depending on in which screen you are right now. In a menu encoder 4 navigates you, in a processor view it controls parameter No. 4, in a step sequencer view it navigates you through the steps and so on. Therefore these functions are probably “hard coded” and not editable.
So setting functions would not be wise if it would be possible. You might be able to change the encoder push behaviour (other than the encoder rotating function; probably switch 21-24 or whereever the “Zynpot” is set up). So you might be able to set encoder 4 push behaviour as a tap tempo switch, but you might not want to do so, because you’d loose the context dependent functionality then (Means you could navigate the menu but not select a menu entry then for example).
But I don’t know. Probably you want to navigate the Zynthian completely from touch input and use the encoders for something else, and then the question would perfectly making sense again.

I understand: what push me to look how to set the behaviour of encoders is because the (standard) action that save a preset as Favorite now disappeared and I do not know how to fix it
…and reflash is not my hidden dream 
Oh, I’m afraid this is a question for the ones who mess around with the whole python stuff here. My guess is that it had to be hard coded as a CUIA somewhere below here (at least if you look for setup a specific button for that action in the wiring options).
Did you try bold-clicking on a preset from the preset list?
