The channel V-Pots can function in a number of different ways, as controlled by the V-Pot mode keys mapped to the soft keys in
the DAW Profile assigned to the current layer. Each of the default Profile contains a full set of V-Pot mode keys mapped to the
default soft key set. These master keys allow the V-Pots to control a variety of workstation console functions including panning,
sends and plug-in parameters. When using the MCU protocol, the 2-digit
additional user feedback on V-Pot modes.
V-Pot mode functionality will be fully described in the control surface documentation supplied with the DAW.
Each V-Pot is surrounded by a circular 11 segment parameter value indicator with a red LED immediately underneath the V-Pot to indicate default
value settings or the state of the integral V-Pot switch. Full information will be found the DAW control surface documentation.
As well as the modes defined by the DAW protocol, Matrix offers
additional V-Pot functionality via the four console
keys, located above the Utility and Navigation areas of the Matrix
centre section. Each of these buttons lights to indicate when they
are active, with normal operation indicated when no lights are on.
Flip Mode
The FLIP button sends the MCU Flip command or the HUI Shift command, allowing certain function on the V-Pots to be
controlled by the faders. In Pro Tools, the
channel V-Pot, CUT and SOLO
function. The send slot being controlled is displayed in the top row of the digital scribble strip.
When controlling a DAW via the MCU protocol, the

faders including plug-ins and Instruments – full details will be found in your DAW control surface documentation.

IN-Line Mode

IN-LINE assigns the V-Pot to control either the analogue channel output level or the DAW track level depending on the current
console Focus mode, replacing the current function assigned to the V-Pot: In DAW Focus mode, the channel fader controls the

DAW track level and the V-Pot the analogue channel level, whereas in Analogue Focus mode, the channel fader controls the
analogue channel level and the V-Pot controls the DAW track level.

The last two V-POT MODE
SOLO buttons are always linked to the channel fader, whether it is in Analogue or DAW Focus mode. If
the V-Sel switch becomes the solo button for the signal, which is being controlled by the V-Pot. Similarly, if
the V-Sel switch becomes the mute switch for the signal which is being controlled by the V-Pot. In either mode, the red LED
beneath the V-Pot lights to indicate that the
