The Trackball
There are two trackballs on the console:
The first is on the surface beside the FILES/AUTO panel.
Note that the left and right-click buttons for this trackball are
raised from the surface as marked with the red dots below:
The second is beside the console keyboard in a pull-out drawer
at the front of the desk:
Using the Touch-Screen
Anything which can be selected from the trackball can also be
operated by touching the screen. So, for example, you could
turn on the Compressor by touching the on-screen button.
Note that using the touch-screen is best reserved for large
buttons!
The Console Keyboard
The console keyboard is located in a pull-out drawer at the front
of the desk and is used for entering names such as Labels, File
names, etc. Names may be limited to a certain number of
characters, and cannot contain spaces or invalid characters:
The keyboard also provides access to several short-cuts. For
example, to name a Label, you would press [F3] on the console
keyboard. You can find a full list of keyboard short-cuts by
pressing [F1], or selecting the āUTIL -> Helpā menu.
Often you will use the keyboard to select a function by pressing
the letter underlined on-screen; in the PAN display, shown
opposite, pressing [O] selects On, [P] selects Prefader, and [I]
selects Independent.
