parameter each fader controls.

Sends.
When Sends mode is active, the motorized faders will control
send parameters.

Pan.
When Pan mode is active, the motorized faders will display and

scribble strips controls the panning for the currently selected channel.
Press the left Shift button with the Pan button to activate Swap mode. While
Swap mode is active, the volume for the selected track will be controlled

situations when the FaderPort is located close to microphones and you
don’t want to capture the mechanical noise of the faders moving.
