The function of these buttons is soft – i.e. it changes according to the active Window and the current view
in that window. The top soft buttons are generally used for menu items.
Side Soft
The function of these buttons is soft – i.e. it changes according to the active Window and the current view

the gobo wheel onto the next gobo. Pressing SHIFT and the soft button bumps the gobo wheel back to the
previous gobo.
