1. Channel faders
The eight 100mm motorized faders are generally used for controlling channel
volume. They are all touch sensitive to allow override automation the moment
you touch a fader. Also, they are motorized; they will automatically move to
reflect the current level of the selected channels in your LV1.
2. Master fader
This 100mm motorized fader operates the same as the other 8 faders. It can be
assigned to any mixer channel.
3. Knobs
The eight rotary encoder knobs are generally used for controlling the track pan
position, aux send levels, and EQ and dynamics plugin parameters.
4. Control buttons
