You will notice that there are additional labels beneath the SELECTION MODE keys. These functions have no purpose in the
Cubase UF8 profile.
Channel Encoder
over a control and turn the encoder for hands-on control.
The sensitivity of FOCUS mode will vary depending on what plug-in or on-screen element you are controlling. You
can use the mouse scroll sensitivity setting in your computer preferences to adjust to taste.
Bank Keys
The BANK < > keys allow you to move tracks across your UF8 control surface(s) in multiples of 8, depending on how many UF8s
are connected. e.g. 8 for one UF8, 16 for 2 UF8s etc.

By default, the CHANNEL encoder is used to move your DAW tracks across the UF8 surface, in
increments of 1 channel at a time. If you find yourself in NAV or FOCUS modes, simply push the
CHANNEL encoder to return to CHANNEL mode.
Nav
Pressing the NAV key changes the CHANNEL encoder to operate the playhead position in
Cubase, allowing you to navigate through your session.
Nudge
Disabled. Only applies to Pro Tools profiles.
Focus
Pressing the FOCUS key puts the CHANNEL encoder into Focus mode, which emulates the scroll
function of a mouse. This can be a really nice way of controlling plug-ins or anything else on screen
that responds to a mouse scroll operation. Simply open a plug-in GUI, hover your computer mouse
Cursor Keys and Mode Key
In the lower-right corner of UF8 are the Cursor keys with the Zoom key in the centre.
When the Zoom key is lit the cursor keys perform horizontal and vertical zooming.
Pressing the Zoom key again, the cursor keys mirror the actions of the cursor keys on your
computer keyboard in Cubase.
