Pressing a red pad will arm that track for recording and it will glow a brighter red. When a track is
muted the corresponding pad will become brighter.
Record/ Solo mode - As above, the top row of pads toggles the record arm on the relevant track, the
bottom row of pads will be lit blue and toggles the track solo. When soloed the pad will become a
brighter blue.
The two modes above are toggled by pressing the Stop/Solo/Mute button. Please note that when
using Launchkey with Logic Pro the Stop/Solo/Mute button will only toggle between Solo and Mute
modes, there is no Stop mode. Stopping the track is done with the Stop transport button.
4.1.3 Pots (Knobs)
Device Mode - Links the pots to the parameters, or “smart controls” of the device on the selected
track. For instrument tracks, this is the parameter array of the instrument. To assign the pots to Device
Mode press the Device Pad (upper left) with the Shift button held. Now, when any knob is moved, the
changed device parameter and its current value is displayed on the screen for a moment. The image
below shows a track containing a ‘Classic Electric Piano’. In this example your Launchkey’s 8 pots
control a variety of important parameters including Bell Volume, Treble, Drive etc.
