Arturia KeyLab 88 MkII [43/89] Encoders faders

4.8. Encoders, Faders

In DAW mode the encoders and faders provide essential mixing features for the group of

eight tracks that is currently selected.

4.8.1. Encoders in DAW mode

The black text under the encoders reveals their function in DAW mode:

• Encoder 1 controls the stereo field panning position for the first track in the

selected bank

• Encoder 2 controls the stereo field panning position for the second track in the

selected bank

• Encoder 3 controls the stereo field panning position for the third track in the

selected bank

...and so on.



♪: Encoder 9 does not have a function in DAW mode.

4.8.2. Faders in DAW mode

The black text under the faders reveals their function in DAW mode:

• Fader 1 controls the level of the first track in the selected bank

• Fader 2 controls the level of the second track in the selected bank

• Fader 3 controls the level of the third track in the selected bank

...and so on through fader 8, which controls the level of the eighth track in the selected bank.

Fader 9 is different, though: it controls the Master Volume of the entire song or project.



♪: There are two response behaviors available for the faders in DAW mode: Jump or Pickup [p.80].

The choice can be made from the front panel of the KeyLab mkII [p.22] or using the MCC [p.62].
