4 To adjust a value, do either of the following:
• Press the
Sel switch next to the knob to increment (increase); press In to decrement (decrease).
• Turn the knob for that parameter clockwise to increment (extend or move later in the timeline), or counterclockwise to dec-
rement (shorten or move earlier in the timeline). Turn slowly for fine adjustment and fast for coarse.
On-screen in the Pro Tools Edit Window, the targeted clip is outlined in yellow as soon as you touch or adjust a knob, or press
an edit switch (see Figure 43). Brackets appear when trimming or adjusting fades.
On Display Modules, the waveform or icon shown varies with the edit function being adjusted, as follows:
Clip Gain
The waveform gets wider as Clip Gain is increased, and narrower as it is decreased. See “1” in Figure 44.
Move
The entire clip remains highlighted and moves later in time (rotate encoder clockwise, or press Sel), or earlier (counter-clock-
wise, or press
In). See “2” in Figure 44.
Trim Back and Trim Front
A bracket appears at the tail of the clip (Trim Back) or head of the clip (Trim Front). See “3” in
Figure 44.
Fade In
A bracket appears at the head of the clip, and the Fade In length is indicated by a horizontal line that moves as you adjust
the Fade In value. See “4” in Figure 44.
Fade Out
A bracket appears at the tail of the clip, while the Fade out length is indicated by a horizontal line that moves as you adjust
the Fade Out value. See “5” in Figure 44.
Nudge Amount
The Nudge value increases or decreases as you adjust the value. This Nudge Value is independent from the
Pro Tools Nudge Amount, and is stored with the session. The S6 Nudge value only affects edits made using the S6
Sel and In
switches. Edits made by rotating S6 knobs use a fixed value and knob acceleration.
5 To Undo or Redo an edit, press the corresponding Sel or In switch.
6 To take a track out of Edit mode, press any other function switch on that strip (such as EQ).

Display Module Waveform views only show and edit clips, regardless of the current Pro Tools Track view (for example, you cannot
edit MIDI notes from the surface).
