This book combines a formal reference alongside your own notes and
comments, collectively bringing together a comprehensive guide to Tracker.

Control conventions.
(Jog)
Rounded parentheses represent the large single rotary control jog wheel.
Selected functions can be navigated or changed depending on the context.
[Function]
Square parentheses contain functions that are selectable by a physically
dedicated button - either as a primary or secondary function. Examples are
[Rec], [Play]. The arrow symbol buttons will be represented by [Left],
[Right], [Up], [Down] text.
[Function] + [Option]
Functions which require multiple button selections simultaneously are
shown with a + symbol between each required button. An example is the
[Shift] + [Copy/Paste] command.
[PAD]
Each of the 48 pad buttons will be simply represented by [PAD]. These
functions will depend on the mode and function selected.
[Dynamic Screen Key]
The 8 dynamic screen buttons located under the display will be written in
this book using italic text. The actual function that each button serves will
change depending on the current context. The function it serves will be
labelled on the screen above each button on the device. Currently
unavailable options will show on the tracker screen as dimmed text. An
example is [Create Project].
