This is the default mode, selected automatically on start. You can also change to it pressing <code>SHIFT</code> + <code>VOLUME</code> or <code>SHIFT</code> + <code>PAN</code>. In this mode you can perform the following actions:
* Change controllers' bank. There are '''two banks''' (1 and 2), which are used to handle up to 16 chains (with the eight track buttons/knobs). Bank 1 is for chains 1 to 8 and bank 2 manage chains 9 to 16. To show current selected bank, press and hold <code>SHIFT</code>, and then one of the track buttons <code>LEFT arrow</code> or <code>RIGHT arrow</code> will light up in red. <code>LEFT arrow</code> is bank 1 and <code>RIGHT arrow</code> is bank 2. You also can press one of these buttons while holding <code>SHIFT</code> to change the bank.
* Use track buttons to '''perform a function''' on chains. The function is chosen by pressing <code>SHIFT</code> + one of <code>SELECT</code>, <code>MUTE</code> or <code>SOLO</code> scene buttons. Press and hold <code>SHIFT</code> to see current selected function on scene buttons (in green). Functions are:

** <code>SOLO</code>, used to enable solo in the corresponding chain.
