It allows you to navigate through menus, different instruments, or scroll through various wavetables or samples.

**Short Click**: Confirms a selection on the screen.

</td></tr><tr style="height: 147.344px;"><td style="height: 147.344px;"><span style="color: rgb(241, 196, 15);">**Exit / Alt Button**</span></td><td style="height: 147.344px;">**Short Click**: "EXIT" Button: Returns to the previous page.

  
**Long Click: "ALT" Button**: Accesses alternative functionalities, generally allows access to additional tabs in the modules.

  
**Long Click + Potentiometer 1-4**: Resets the parameter above the potentiometer to its default value.

**Short click + encoder click:** preview the current instrument; the note lasts as long as the encoder is held.

**Long click + turn encoder**: opens a shortcut menu.
