The two-line backlit LCD display shows the parameter values as you adjust them

and also provides feedback about channel selections, operating modes, and

more.

2. Channel faders

The eight 100mm motorized faders are generally used for controlling the track

volume of your DAW. Depending on your DAW, you may use the “Flip” button to

switch the function of these faders to change other settings. They are all touch

sensitive to allow override automation the moment you touch a fader. Also,

they are motorized; they will automatically move to reect the current level of

the selected channels in your DAW application. Any automation recorded in a

project will be reected by the fader positions. Any parameter adjustments made

with these faders will be displayed directly above on the LCD display.

Note: Function operates slightly difference between DAWs. Please refer to your

DAW manual for each function and overlap the provided labeling template according

to your currently used DAW. The following description is based on the functions that

operate in Apple Logic.

3. Channel level metering

The 12-led meter shows the associated channel level.

4. Dual function encoders

The dual function encoders act as push-button and rotary controls.

When an encoder is pressed, it may be used to change modes of operation

or to change what appears in the display above the channel strips. When an

encoder is rotated, depending on its assigned function, it can be used to adjust

a channel’s pan, send level, or plug-in parameters.

the rotation without having to look at your computer.

MUTE buttons - Activate and deactivate the mute state of the associated

channel. The switch will light blue when the channel is muted.
