Pads/Knobs
27. Pads (1–16): Use these velocity-sensitive pads to send MIDI Note On/Off messages or perform
other MIDI assignments (if using a preset or the User DAW).
Pads 9-11: Hold SHIFT while pressing Pads 9–11 to reassign the function of the Knobs.
Pads 13-16: Hold SHIFT while pressing Pads 13–16 to use the DAW shortcuts (see Operation
to learn more).
28. Pad Row Play: Press these buttons to play through the audio clips assigned to each pad in the
corresponding row of pads.
Depending on the DAW, these buttons will have different functions.
29. Knobs (1–8): Turn these knobs left/right to perform their assigned controls.
When operating with a DAW, the assigned controls will be predetermined.
When operating with a preset or the User DAW selected, the controls can be edited.
See Operation to learn how to change the predetermined assignments of the Knobs when
operating in DAW Mode with a DAW selected.
Knobs 1-4: Hold SHIFT while turning Knobs 1–4 to edit arpeggiator settings.
See Using the Keyboard’s Internal Functions to learn more about the arpeggiator.
Important: Both the Faders and Knobs are enabled with “soft takeover.” This means that if you
switch BANKs, a Fader or knob will not work until it is positioned at the current value of the
newly selected software control. For example, if you move Fader 1 in BANK 1 and then switch to
BANK 2, physical Fader 1 will not affect software Fader 10 until the physical Fader is positioned
at the current value of software Fader 10. This feature allows you to make changes in one BANK
and then switch BANKs without making unwanted changes to the new BANK’s controls. The
Display will show a checkered value meter if a Fader or Knob needs to be moved before it can
“take over” its assigned control.
Important: In Avid Pro Tools, stereo tracks have two panning controls: left and right. Press the
SHIFT button to switch the knobs between the left channel and right channel. If the pan controls
aren't moving on a mono track, press the SHIFT button to change pan knob back to controlling
the pan control normally.
