V-Pot and V-Sel Control
The channel V-Pots and V-Sel switches below the digital display fulfill a number of different
DAW-specific functions. The V-Pot value is displayed using the LEDs surrounding it and the
small red LED beneath indicates that the V-Sel switch is in its active position (as shown).
The V-Sel switch is activated by pressing on the V-Pot. Note also that the Mode switches
do not hold any function specific to the channel strip in which they are located.
Nucleus

’s Pro Tools and Logic profiles come programmed with a number of essential V-
Pot modes assigned to the Mode switches above the left-hand display. These are printed
below the switches. Full lists of default assignments are listed in the Appendix.
Mode switch 16 – on the far right-hand side – also comes pre-assigned, to the ‘Keyboard ID’ function. This function is
required for part of the USB set up as described in Section 4.
Note that Mode switch assignments do not appear in the scribble strip display. If you change a Mode switch function
or assign functions to the right-hand Mode switches, we suggest creating your own labels to indicate the new
function.
The right-hand Mode switches are not available if
USeR 1
or
USeR 2
(user soft keys) are selected.
Note also that the functions assigned to the Mode switches are programmed in the Nucleus
2
Remote. See Section 5
for more information.
