V-Pot 2 or F2 Switches to Pan/Surround Mixer view and selects Diversity.
V-Pot 3 or F3 Switches to Pan/Surround Mixer view and selects LFE level.

V-Pot 5
V-Pot 6 or F5 Switches to Pan/Surround Channel view.
V-Pot 7 or F6 Switches to Surround Angle/Diversity Mixer view.
The mode display shows “Ad” (Angle/Diversity).
The upper LCD row shows channel strip names.
The lower LCD row shows the surround angle currently assigned to each
channel strip.
Rotating a V-Pot changes the surround angle (or adjusts pan position on
non-surround channel strips).
Pressing a V-Pot sets the surround angle to its default value.
The faders edit surround diversity.
V-Pot 8 or F7 Switches to Surround X/Y Mixer view.
The mode display shows “XY.
The upper LCD row shows channel strip names.
The lower LCD row shows the surround X value currently assigned to
each channel strip.
Rotating a V-Pot changes the surround X value (or adjusts pan position
on non-surround channel strips).
Pressing a V-Pot sets surround X to its default value.
The faders edit surround Y.
Note: The X and Y parameters are limited to a rectangular coordinate system. As such,
value pairs outside the surround circle are not possible. If you try to set a Y value that
is invalid, the X coordinate is automatically adjusted to a valid position, and vice versa.
For example, moving Y to +1000 results in an X coordinate value of 0. When only one
coordinate value is edited, the other coordinate value defaults to the setting of the most
recently selected channel strip. This helps you to create linear movements. X and Y have
a value range of –1000 to +1000, but the resolution is not that high because surround
positions are currently recorded as 7-bit data.
