• For fine placement, press the SCRUB button, then use the wheel to precisely position
the playhead. (This technique is only appropriate if creating or deleting an unrounded
marker.)
For more information about using the Jog/Scrub Wheel, see Mackie Control: Jog/Scrub
Wheel Zone.
Large Marker mode is terminated by pressing the MARKER button again.
Temporary Marker Mode
If you want to enter Marker mode temporarily (to quickly perform a few marker functions),
hold down the MARKER button and press one (or more) of the V-Pot buttons. This action
executes the marker function and then leaves Marker mode as soon as you release the
MARKER button.
• When in this mode with the MARKER button held down, pressing the function keys F1
to F8 moves the playhead to the first eight markers (if created). For example, to navigate
to marker 3, press and hold down the MARKER button and press F3.
• To jump between markers, with (or without) the MARKER button held down, simply
press the FAST FWD or REWIND button.
Mackie Control: NUDGE Button
The NUDGE button allows you to move (nudge) selected audio or MIDI regions (or events)
in Small, Large, or Temporary Nudge mode.
Note: The Marker and Nudge modes are mutually exclusive; activating one deactivates
the other.
Small Nudge Mode
Pressing the NUDGE button reassigns the behavior of the FAST FWD and REWIND buttons;
pressing either FAST FWD or REWIND nudges the selected regions or events by the value
defined in Large Nudge mode. Pressing the NUDGE button a second time reverts to the
default behavior of the FAST FWD and REWIND buttons. (See Mackie Control: REWIND
Button and Mackie Control: FAST FWD Button.)
Small Nudge mode is useful if you want to nudge regions or events, but still use the
V-Pots for other purposes.
Large Nudge Mode
Pressing the NUDGE button while holding down the SHIFT button displays eight functions
on the LCD, and assigns them to the corresponding V-Pot buttons. These functions allow
you to move the selected region or events by various amounts, or to a specific position.
The position of the first selected region or event is displayed above V-Pots 3 and 4. If
nothing is displayed, either a window that does not allow the selection of regions or
events is open, or no regions or events are selected.
