12. The motorized faders: They can move according to the incoming MIDI data, and
the functions can be user-defined.
Important: In the U-CTRL mode, the 9 faders will have other functions than
they do in the MASTER mode. In this mode, they are used to control the
volume settings (or other settings) of the current track BANK. Please refer to
the U-CTRL related chapter.
Important: The motorized faders work properly with an external power supply,
and they do not when powered only by the USB cable. If you find that the
motorized faders do not move when powered only by USB, please get the
external power connected.
Do NOT hold or stop the motorized motors while they are moving, which may
cause great damage to the instrument and may cause electrical shock and
fire!
