116 Chapter 4 M-Audio iControl
Mixer View and Channel View
The rotary encoders operate in two views—Mixer view and Channel view. Switching
between these views determines whether the rotary encoders (and in some cases, the
Select buttons) edit separate channels, or a single channel.
 Mixer view: Accesses the same parameter for eight channel strips, such as pan or
volume (normally a section of the Mixer window).
 Channel view: Accesses eight parameters of the selected channel strip.
Switching to a Mixer or Channel view is achieved by pressing one of the Assignment
buttons. For more information on use of the Assignment buttons, see “Assignment
Buttons” on page 118.
The Jog Wheel
You can navigate through projects with the Jog Wheel, located towards the lower-left
of the iControl, just above the Transport controls. Turning the wheel clockwise moves
the playhead forward. Turning it to the left moves the playhead backwards.
Transport Controls
The Transport controls, at the bottom left of the iControl, feature six large buttons:
Record, Return to Zero, Rewind, Play, Fast Forward, and Cycle. You can use these
buttons to navigate your projects and perform a number of recording and editing
tasks.
Record Button
Press the Record button (denoted by a large white dot) to activate recording on
channel strips that are currently armed for recording (see “Record Enable Button” on
page 115).
Return to Zero Button
Press the Return to Zero button (denoted by a vertical line and left arrow) to move the
playhead to the beginning of the project.
Rewind Button
Quickly press the Rewind button (denoted by two left arrows) to move the playhead
backwards by one bar. Hold down the Rewind button to continuously move the
playhead backwards in one bar steps.
You can also press the Rewind and Cycle buttons simultaneously—to activate Cycle
mode, and set the left cycle border (left locator) to the current playhead position.
