Bank Info Similarly, banks also contain metadata which will be provided by the Bank Info window.
Parameter Info In addition, specific parameter information will be provided by the Parameter Info window.
Presets All the floating banks in the main area can also be shown or hidden, shifting the focus to the parameters. Nevertheless, all banks still are available in the Tab.

Their positions are following mouse or touch gestures with a smoothed speed. At the left edge, the settings can be accessed. They contain:

  • the amount of additional smoothing
  • an option to assign Control  and  to the second XY field or to the two horizontal sliders

Note that the provided smoothing times are completely separate of the Edit Smoothing Time (found in the of the Menu) as well as the Macro Control Smoothing Times (found below each Macro Control slider in the User Interface).
