17 - Large Notched CHANNEL Encoder
The large encoder can function in several different modes:
• Standard Mode - Push the encoder itself to return to CHANNEL mode. Moving the encoder will bank DAW tracks one at a time.
• NAV Mode - 'Nav' is short for Navigation. In this mode, the encoder allows you to move the playhead cursor along your DAW
timeline.
NUDGE Mode - This mode is only supported by Pro Tools. It allows you to use the encoder to move selected audio regions
•
by the currently set Nudge value.
• FOCUS Mode - This mode turns the operation of the large encoder into a mouse wheel scroll emulation and is great for
controlling plug-ins. Simply hover your computer mouse over the desired control and turn the encoder. The sensitivity of this
mode will be determined by your computer's mouse scroll sensitivity settings.
