Knobs

Knobs Edit Mode lets you determine what the knobs control in other modes. This is helpful when you want
to use the knobs to control parameters that might not be shown in the current mode—or parameters that
are shown across different modes.
To enter Knobs Edit Mode, do either of the following:
•
Press Menu, and then tap Knobs.
•
Press and hold Shift and press Knobs.
To select a mode for the knobs, use the Knobs Mode field at the top of the display to select one of the following
options:
•
Screen: In this mode, the knobs are fixed to control a parameter or group of parameters in your currently
selected mode (e.g., Pad Mixer, Sample Edit Mode, etc.).
•
Project: In this edit mode, the knobs can control 16 parameters within the current project overall. See the
following Project

Volume: In this mode, the knobs are fixed to control track volume.
•

•
Send 1–4: In these modes, the knobs are fixed to control track send level.
Use the Track field to select a track to edit the knob assignments. The contents of the screen below will vary based on
(1) the type of tracks and (2) the Knobs Edit Mode you selected.
At any time, in any mode, you can show the Knobs window over the touchscreen's current contents. This lets you
quickly select between the knob modes.
