Rewind and forward

When pressing the P-switch, the rewind button sets the in-point of a loop, and the forward button the end-point.

Pressing the P-switch upwards allows for toggling between time played and time left indication in the display.

Crossfader

Set at maximum left, channel 1 is alone in line out, set at maximum right, only channel 2 is in line out, and set in the middle, both channels are at the same line out level. Any variations hereof are of course possible blend options.

Press the P-switch downwards and the crossfader switches to control the channel blend in the headphones.

Play/pause

The play button behaves like on any other audio player, but when in Mix Mode, the pause is ‘stuttering’, allowing you to search and find the appropriate place to set the cue point.

When pressing the P-switch upwards, the play button reverses the play direction.

Cue

The Cue button sets the starting point for the track and can also be used to create effects. When pressing the P-switch upwards, the Cue button enables exiting and re-entering a loop.

Touchpad

The touchpad allows you to bend a track, change EQ values and gain levels.

When pressing the P-switch upwards, the touchpad allows for controlling and setting pitch values, filter parameters and audio effect levels.

When pressing the P-switch downwards, the touchpad allows for controlling the headphones volume.

The touchpad is also used to navigate the track library and the device settings.

Settings

The Settings button lets you turn on and turn off the device.

When turned on, the Settings button gives you access to the settings menu.
