Note: Functions operate slightly differenently between DAWs. Please refer to your 
DAW manual for each function. The following description is based on the functions 
that operate in Apple Logic.
1.  25/37/49/61/88-note key switches
  25/37/49/61/88-note velocity-sensitive piano-action key switches.

  The touch fader could be used to adjust the parameter of different channels. Press the two 
“Track or Bank” shifting buttons to shift between channels. Also, by pressing the “Master” 
button, the fader will change to control the parameters of the master channel.
3.  Dual function encoders
  The dual functioned encoder acting as a push-button and a rotary control. When an 
encoder is pressed, it may be used to change modes of operation or to change what 
appears in the display above the channel strips. When an encoder is rotated, depending 
on its assigned function, it can be used to adjust a channel’s pan, send level, or plug-in 
parameters.
4.  Encoder LED
  The 11-LED surrounding the encoder lights up to indicate the relative position of the 
rotation without having to look at your computer.
