Changes

The V5 knobs behave quite differently to V1-V4 knobs. Because of the 20 silicone buttons, there is no need to use the knobs' switches to navigate the UI which now is best achieved with the push buttons, so when appropriate, knobs' switches have been mapped to drive the MIDI learning functionality, which is quite intuitive. The knobs are numbered from top to bottom, so the top one is knob#1 and the bottom one is knob#4. We will refer knobs in this way throughout this guide.

Although knob's functionality is now more contextual, there is a kind of pattern that can serve as a ''general rule'':

===General rule===

When not in the control screen, knob #4 acts as the ''select'' knob similar to the classic V1-V4 UI. It can be used for browsing lists and moving the cursor horizontally in grids (zynpad, pattern editor, etc.). Pushing the knob#4 can usually be used for selecting items in a similar way to the SELECT button. Knob#3 can be used for moving the cursor vertically in grids (zynpad, pattern editor, etc.).

Although knob's functionality is contextual in V5, there is a kind of pattern that can serve as a ''general rule'' and applies to many screens:

* '''Knob #4:''' Acts as the '''select knob''' similar to the classic V1-V4 UI.

** ''rotate'' to browse lists and move the cursor horizontally in grids (zynpad, pattern editor, etc.).

** ''short-push'' to select items, same than the SELECT button.

* '''Knob#3:'''

** ''Rotate'' to move the cursor vertically in grids (zynpad, pattern editor, etc.).

 

===Control screen===

===Control screen===

* ''knob rotation'' is used for controlling parameters, the same as the classic UI. This has not changed.

* '''Knob #1 - #4'''

* ''short-push'' on any knob starts MIDI-learning for the associated parameter. Simply move the knob/fader in your MIDI controller and they will be bound.

** ''rotate'' any knob for controlling the assigned parameters, same as the classic UI. This has not changed.

* ''bold-push'' on any knob opens the MIDI-learning menu.

** ''short-push'' any knob starts MIDI-learning for the associated parameter. Simply move the knob/fader in your MIDI controller and it will be bound.

** ''bold-push'' any knob opens the options menu for the associated parameter.
