Assignment Overview
A modifier (such as SHIFT) below a button description indicates an alternate meaning
for the button, while holding down this modifier.
Display
The display shows information on the current mode, and parameter being edited:
Pots
As the pots are not motorized, Pickup mode is used—if enabled in the Control Surfaces
preferences. In Pickup mode, the controller must reach (pick up) the current value
before the value starts to change. This prevents sudden jumps of parameter values
caused by playing back automation.
A pot’s current value is indicated by the NULL arrow LEDs.
 The Upper arrow is lit if the pot’s value is above the current value.
 The Lower arrow is lit if the pot’s value is below the current value.
 Both arrow LEDs are lit when the pot has reached the current value.
The pots can operate in one of three modes, with one sub-mode in each.
