The Knobs
There are two knobs at the top of the padKONTROL that are begging to be twisted. They have useful assignments, but they’re also there so YOU can decide on their function.
•The functions are easily assigned using Setting mode, as described on the next page.
•You can decide which pads are affected by the individual knobs, and which ones will ignore them.
