The available commands include:
- Track volume (Faders 1-16/24) - Track mute (Channel buttons) - Track solo (Channel buttons) - Arming tracks (Channel buttons) - Start/Stop replay (Play/Stop) - Starting/stopping recording (Rec) - Jog wheel usage for scrubbing - Jumping to Start (STOP+REW) - Cycle through markers forward/backward (FF/REW) - Scroll timeline forward/backward (Left/Right) - Scroll channel list forward/backward (Up/Down) - Free usage of F1-F5 keys (see below)
