===Test the Controllers===
If you get into the Zynthian UI, then you should start by testing that your controllers are working OK.
If you get into the Zynthian UI, then you should be in the 'Layer Selection' screen. Let's start testing that your controllers are working OK.
1. Push 'select'. You should get into the 'Layer Selection' screen.
1. Push 'select' to create a new layer. You should get into the 'Engine Selection' screen.
If it doesn't works, try pushing the 'snapshot' controller. Perhaps you have cross-wired the 3 & 4 controllers and in that case, you have to fix the wiring. If it doesn't work, try pushing the other two controllers and rotating the controllers. If something happens, most probably you have reversed the wiring order when connecting the controllers, or perhaps you have changed some wires while connecting the main ribbon bus. Double-check the wiring again.

2. Rotate the 'SELECT' controller to select the engine you want to start.
2. Rotate the 'SELECT' controller to select the engine you want to start for the new layer.
The selector must go down when rotating clockwise and go up when rotating counterclockwise. If the rotation sense is reversed, you should check the wiring.

3. Push 'BACK'. You should get into the 'Admin' screen. Push 'BACK' again to return to the 'Engine Selection' screen.
3. Select the ZynAddSubFX engine, select channel #1, bank and instrument. You should get into the 'Instrument Control' screen:
'''CAPTURE NEEDED HERE'''
'''CAPTURE NEEDED HERE'''
4. Rotate every control to test that it works and that the rotation sense is correct.
If some controller doesn't work correctly, check the wiring again. You could try to figure what is happening by analizing the observed behaviour.

5. Push 'BACK'. You should go back to the 'Preset Selection' screen.
6. Push 'Layer' again to return to the 'Layer Selection' screen. Try to create another layer following the same procedure.
7. From the "Instrument Control" screen, push 'Snapshot' to get into the 'Load Snapshot' screen. Push 'Snapshot' again to 'Save Snapshot'. Push 'BACK' to return to the 'Instrument Control' screen.
If everything is working OK, then you should read the [[Zynthian_Users_Guide User's|Guide]] and start enjoying your Zynthian Box, but before that ...
