Tutorial
This section guides you through using UF8 with Pro Tools.
Selection Mode
The primary purpose of the NORM, REC and AUTO keys in the SELECTION MODE section
is to determine the behaviour of the SEL keys. These 3 modes inter-cancel.
NORM - The SEL keys behave as normal track selection functions of Pro Tools.
REC - The SEL keys become track record-arm buttons.
AUTO - The SEL keys become Automation Select keys and can be used in conjunction with
the AUTOMATION state keys found on the bottom-left corner of UF8.

V-Pot
At the top of each strip is the V-Pot (virtual pot). The function of the V-Pot varies, depending on
which V-Pot assignment mode is currently active (Pan, Send etc). These modes are explained
on the pages that follow.
100 mm Motorised Fader
Motorised, touch-sensitive faders provide physical control of your Pro Tools tracks and are
great for balancing mix levels and riding volume automation.
Solo, Cut & Sel (Select)
Each strip contains SOLO, CUT and SEL keys corresponding to the solo, mute and select
features for each track in Pro Tools.
In Use:
When solo'ing tracks, expect the CUT keys of UF8 to flash on all tracks that are not solo'd.
Double-pressing a SEL key will open up the Pro Tools re-name track window on your computer
screen.
The non-contiguous selection of multiple SEL keys can achieved by pressing and holding the
first SEL key you want to select and then pressing subsequent SEL keys.
Holding the Shift/All modifier key (found within SOFT KEY User Bank 3) and pressing the SEL
keys will allow you to select a contiguous range of SEL keys.
Holding the Opt/Alt modifier key (also found within SOFT KEY User Bank 3) and pressing a
SEL key will allow you to toggle the selection of all SEL keys.
