The Transport Controls; The Center Knob: Use As Jog Wheel - Arturia KEYLAB mkII User Manual

4.4. The transport controls

The Transport section puts popular transport controls at your fingertips:
Rewind / Fast-forward: The exact response of these buttons depends on the DAW
•
you are using. Some might accelerate the playback cursor forward or backward;
others might jump by 1 bar, or jump to the next/previous marker, etc. But as a
general concept, the Rewind / Fast-forward buttons are a quick way to move the
playback cursor back and forth so you can find specific points in your track.
Stop: Stops playback. In some recording software, this will also return the
•
playback cursor to the start of the track.
Play / Pause: Starts and pauses your track at the current position of the playback
•
cursor in your DAW.
Record: Arms the record function in your DAW. Hitting the Record button while
•
the track is stopped will begin playback while recording. If the track is already
playing, hitting Record will begin recording from the current playback cursor
position.
Loop: Toggles the Loop function in your DAW on and off. The loop region is set
•
within your software.

♪: The Transport buttons always send commands using the MCU / HUI protocols and cannot be
reassigned in any mode.

4.5. The Center Knob: Use as Jog Wheel

When DAW mode is selected, the center knob can be used as a "jog wheel" to move the
playback cursor within your recording software backward and forward, speeding up your
workflow.
