Transport Mode
Transport mode helps you to navigate and build up your song composition from Panorama. As explained earlier, the transport
buttons are available in any mode but the dedicated Transport Mode provides access to extra tools that will make capturing
ideas, beat creation and overdubbing easier.
Transport Home Page
Press the [Transport] button to enter Transport mode. Transport mode provides the
visual feedback you need to know where you are in your project. Below the info-bar the
large font readout shows the current SPP location which updates as you play the
project.
Below the SPP readout you see the position of the Left and Right locators (or start time
and end time of time selection). You can set the locators to the current song position by
pressing [Shift]+[Goto L] and [Shift]+[Goto R]
In addition, the following 8 boxes in the display show what each of 2x4 rows of encoders are assigned to control:
The display buttons are assigned to the following functions:
Getting to grips with Transport mode may take a little bit of practice but it will pay off as you learn how to navigate your
project without having to reach for the computer mouse.

The Panorama P1 also has a foot switch input jack. If you have a foot switch connected, you can select what it controls from
the 5th display button labeled "Pedal".
