Channel Encoder
By default, the CHANNEL encoder is used to move your DAW tracks across the UF8 surface, in increments of one channel at a
time. If you find yourself in NAV, NUDGE or FOCUS modes, simply push the CHANNEL encoder to return to CHANNEL mode.
Scroll Into View
The 'Scroll Into View' feature offered by Pro Tools is a handy way to select a track within
Pro Tools and make it the first track on your UF8 surface.
In Pro Tools, simply right-click with your mouse in the selected track area (white area)
and choose 'Scroll Into View'.

Press and hold ALL and then press any SEL key.
Nav
Pressing the NAV key changes the CHANNEL encoder to operate the playhead position in Pro
Tools, allowing you to navigate through your session.
Nudge
Pressing the NUDGE key puts the CHANNEL encoder into Nudge mode, which will allow you to
move selected audio regions backwards and forwards by the Nudge value you have set within
Pro Tools.
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, hover your computer mouse
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.
