The top-left of the screen displays the following information (top to bottom):

SMPTE time, minutes/seconds, feet/frames, and bar/beat counters are located to the right of that display.
On the top-right, the Touchscreen displays either the four tracks currently assigned to the four faders, or two tracks currently
assigned to the pair of MC joysticks.
The left of the Touchscreen displays five mode buttons that apply functions to selected tracks:
Solo Select tracks to solo. (For information on Solo modes, see“Solo” on page 22.)
Arm Arm tracks for recording.
Mute Turn tracks on/off.
Select Select a track on the MC and in the DAW.
Wave Focus a track to the Soft Knobs.
To apply a function:
Touch its button and then touch tracks in the grid to apply the function. Touch selected tracks again to toggle that function off.
Use the Clear button beside each function to release all tracks from that function. For example, touch the Clear button next to
Solo to unsolo all soloed tracks.
The channel squares in the track grid show status in several ways:
Whitish-blue background coloring with yellow text means the channel is selected
Blue-gray background coloring represents muted tracks.
A red border around the square means the track is soloed.
A red dot at the top right of the square means the track is armed for recording
Colored bars below the text are DAW track colorings in DAWs that offer it.
