16 ARTURIA – MiniLab – USER’S MANUAL
You’ll discover immediately that Knob 1 is reserved for the Master Volume parameter
and Knob 9 is reserved for preset selection, which is why it is grayed out (see section
3.2.1.2). But it is possible to change the parameter assignments for every other knob by
using the pull-down menu under each knob inside the Analog Lab screen.
Note: Each time you select a new preset it is possible the knob assignments will change.
This is partly because there may be different parameters available for the synthesizer on
which that preset is based.
For more details on editing a preset, see the Analog Lab user manual.
3.5 Using the Pads
With Analog Lab active and a Sound selected, play one of the pads on the MiniLab. What
you near next will depend on the status of the Pad 1-8 / 9-16 button.
3.5.1 Play a Chord
If the Pad 1-8 / 9-16 button on the MiniLab is not lit then you will hear a note or a chord
played on the selected synthesizer. The exact chord can be defined inside Analog Lab by
clicking on the blue tab on the right side of the virtual keyboard (the one labeled
CHORDS). A virtual panel will slide out to the left and allow you to specify a different
chord per pad.
