[8] PAN
• Pressing the PAN button changes the V-Pot
function to Pan.
• The LED next to the PAN button lights.
• The ASSIGNMENT display indicates “Pn.”
• Pressing PAN a second time sets the V-Pots
into Pan Right mode. This mode is used to
pan only the right channel on stereo tracks.
When Pan Right mode is active, the LED
next to the PAN button flashes and the
ASSIGNMENT display indicates “Pr.”
Note: The PAN control doesn’t function on
mono channels while in Pan Right mode. Press
the PAN button again to return to normal PAN
mode, and to Pan Left mode on stereo channels.
[9] PLUG-IN
• Pressing the PLUG-IN button changes the
LCD to show the Plug-In view. This view is
used to access the selected channel’s inserts
(for selecting, adding, or removing a plug-in),
or to edit the parameters of a single plug-in.
• In Plug-in view, there are typically four
parameters or less that are displayed on the
LCD. These four parameters are accessed by
rotating or pressing V-Pots 1-4. V-Pot 5 is
used as a “Page” knob to access additional
parameters or inserts. Rotating it clockwise
scrolls to the next page of plug-in parameters,
while rotating counter-clockwise scrolls to the
previous page.
In addition, the CUT [25], SEPERATE [26],
and PASTE [27] buttons change their function
to PLUG-IN ASSIGN, COMPARE, and BYPASS
in Plug-in view mode, as indicated on the Pro
Tools HUI overlay.
• Pressing V-Pot 5 toggles between Insert View
(displaying the selected channel’s insert slots)
and Parameter View (displaying the parameters
of the selected plug-in).
• The V-Pots for channels 6-8 are disabled in
Plug-in view.
• Press PLUG-IN again to exit Plug-in view.
Insert View:
When Insert view is selected in the Plug-In
screen, the LCD displays the available inserts and
the type of plug-in assigned to each insert.
To add, change, or remove the plug-in on an insert slot:
• Press the PLUG-IN ASSIGN button [25] to
enter assign mode.
• Rotate Channel 1-4 V-Pots to select a plug-in
for an insert.
• Press the PLUG-IN ASSIGN button to exit
assign mode and apply the changes.
To select a plug-in for editing:
• Press the V-Pot on channel 1-4 corresponding
to the plug-in slot you wish to edit.
• Press V-Pot 5 to enter Parameter View and
edit the plug-in.
Parameter View:
When Parameter View is active in the Plug-In
screen, the LCD displays the parameters for the
plug-in currently selected for editing. Rotating and
pressing V-Pots 1-4 adjusts the parameters on the
LCD. Rotating V-Pot 5 scrolls through the pages of
parameters available for editing on a particular plug-in.

the master fader shows “As.”
