Mackie Control modier buttons
The four Modier buttons correspond to the modier keys on your computer keyboard (but
function independently from them). You can use these buttons, along with the appropriate key
on your computer keyboard or with the mouse or trackpad, in place of using the corresponding
modier key. This also applies to modied Mackie Control commands.
Modier buttons
•
SHIFT: Provides an alternate function or meaning for a button.
•
OPTION: The function applies to all channel strips. For relative value changes, sets the value to
its minimum, default, or maximum, depending on whether you’re increasing or decreasing it.
•
CONTROL: Hold down to turn on group clutch and temporarily disable channel strip groups.
•
CMD/ALT: Allows ne-tuning or a variation of the function.
