SpEED DIal 

The speed dial knob has 2 functions in Automap Mode. 

Speed Dial mode:

 The speed dial can be used to control any on-screen parameter that can be altered using the mouse. 

Simply move the mouse cursor over the parameter you want to change then rotate the knob to control it.
This process can be used for e.g. altering parameters on a soft-synth, controlling mixer parameters in your sequencer, 
selecting an option from a drop-down menu or resizing a window. The Automap Server software must be running for  
this function to work.

Preset mode:

 Press and rotate the knob whilst held down to select different plug-in presets. Preset navigation will only 

work where a plug-in uses the host preset navigation system, rather than it’s own built-in one.

The Nocturn Keyboard can be used without the Automap software running. In this case both the Keyboard Notes and 
Controls are sent to the computer using Nocturn Keyboard Port. This will appear as ‘Nocturn Keyboard’ (or similar 
depending on computer OS) in your DAW.

The controls output fixed MIDI message as follows:
