Virtual Key Mappings

You can peform various DP functions using the FW-
1884 instead of using a keyboard. There are also equiv-
alents on the FW-1884 for the arrow, Return, Escape, 
and Page Up/Down keys on the Macintosh keyboard. 
These can also be used in combination with the modi-
fier keys (

SHIFT

CTRL

, and 

CMD

 ). DP provides a 

Remote Controls dialog which makes it easy to map 
these key combinations to DP functions that you use 
frequently.

Arrow keys - same as Macintosh DP cursor key 
functions. 

AUX 6/8

 (Page Up/Down): same as the Macin-

tosh page up/page down keys (scroll windows 
up/down) 

AUX 7

 (Return) - same as the Macintosh Return 

key (accepts dialogs). 

AUX 5

 (Escape) - same as Mac Esc key (cancels 

dialogs).

Mixing

The faders and other controls on the FW-1884 control 
8 DP tracks at a time. You shift the controls to the next 
or previous tracks by using the 

BANK

 keys.

Controlling Master Volume

Move the master fader to control the master 
volume.
