The Control View shows the controls available for each engine within a chain. It is shown after adding a chain, adding an engine to a chain or by short press SELECT or tapping the bottom legend strip in the mixer view. Your instrument is now enabled and playable and you can modify its parameters.

The Control View shows the controls available for each engine within a chain. It is shown after adding a chain, adding an engine to a chain or by pressing '''short-SELECT''' (or tapping the bottom legend strip in the mixer view). Your instrument is now enabled and playable and you can modify its parameters.
    
The controls are shown in groups of four (or fewer) on several pages. Each hardware knob controls a parameter displayed in the control view or the control may be dragged up and down on the touchscreen. Controls may toggle between two values, e.g. on / off, lists of values, e.g. sine, square, triangle or continuously adjustable values, e.g. 0%..100%. If there are a lot of possible values the hardware knobs will accelerate progress if rotated fast, e.g. stepping by one value when turned slowly and stepping by 10 values when rotated fast. This allows fine and coarse selection of a parameter from a single knob.

There is a list that shows the pages of controls available.
To change page, short press SELECT - the list of pages turns grey, rotate SELECT to highlight the required page then short press again to select the page. If there are fewer than three pages then short press SELECT will step through each page. Alternatively, tap the required page on the touchscreen. When a page is selected its controls will be shown. Depending on the configuration, some pages may have fewer than four controls and some engines have no adjustable parameters in which case there will be no control pages.

The pages for the controls for each engine within a chain are shown separated by a title indicating to which engine subsequent pages belong.
