function of the associated key.
7) Touch the ‘Apply’ or ‘Cancel’ button, to apply or disregard any changes.
SoftKeys illuminate with different colours depending on function. When assigned to a
Tap Tempo, they flash to display the current tempo.

active, with the colour of the rotary and key relating to the assigned function.
