The following symbols are used to highlight important information:
Hardware Switches on Avid Control Surface
The names of switches on the Dock and other control surface are shown in bold, such as Sel. The two Surface SHIFT switches
on the Dock are indicated by bold text, in all-caps to distinguish them from references to the
Multi Select/SHIFT Global Modifier
switch (S3 only) and the Shift key on your computer keyboard.
Accessing Secondary Functions Using Surface SHIFT
The Surface SHIFT switches are used in conjunction with other switches to access a secondary layer of functions. The primary
function of switches are shown directly on each switch. Most secondary functions are listed next to each switch, or on the switch
but in black text with a white background. For example, for the
Rec/A switch, Rec (track record enable) is the primary function
and
A (track Automation mode) is the secondary function. (You can swap the primary and secondary function for this switch in Eu-
Control).
The following terminology is used to describe Dock
SHIFT functions, for example:
To enable Do to All:
• “Press and hold the Dock SHIFT switch then press the Do to Sel/Do to All switch.”
is written as
• “Press
SHIFT + Do to Sel/Do to All.”
