You can then move straight onto assigning a sound to another pad if you wish and audition sounds as you go. Also a bit disappointed to see that the only izotope plugin they have pre-mapped is the old Ozone 5 imager, so I'm guessing they do not really support izotope plugins as an example, but if its easy to map your own maybe thats ok.

Given the variety of controls on offer, the Panorama P4, P6 and P1 essentially combine a mixer controller, plug-in instrument/effect controller, transport controller and general MIDI controller in one unit, giving you a complete studio control device. Internal mode essentially allows the unit to be used as a generic MIDI control surface with any MIDI-compatible software. However, if you're using something other than Reason and/or Cubase then I would still say that the Panorama is worth your consideration.if its used either in windows or reaper the midi port will not be available for you to set up as a control surface. Mixer mode, instrument mode and transport mode lend an instant helping hand to various parameters of your DAW, while internal mode makes the P1 in to a freely assignable MIDI controller. By default, the encoders are assigned to a channel‘s first 8 sends, but by pressing display soft buttons you can instantly switch them to control channel inserts or Studio One’s macro parameters and engage mix automation.

Eventually, after resetting the P1 using the ‘nkupdate’ application, uninstalling the drivers and then reinstalling, things suddenly sprang into life.This is a problem that you'll find with all MIDI controllers with fixed faders (which let's face it, is pretty much all of them! I have almost the entire UAD catalog so I like I have all of them mapped to my liking including the tapes and verbs and all the eccentric plugins that are not part of a channel strip. It’s rare, but every now and then something unexpected can happen and communication between two MIDI devices can become confused.

With the Panorama P4 and P6 keyboards, you will notice that you are provided with 12 pads, which have a very nice feel to them.Panorama controllers are hardware devices for getting more hands-on with your DAW software, plug-ins and virtual instruments. For example, it displays the name of your selected track in Mixer mode, MIDI CC numbers in Internal mode and it shows you which software parameters are assigned to which physical controls so there is never any confusion about what you will be adjusting when you move a control on the Panorama. I’ve tried a number of these over the years but, as yet, never quite found something that really matched both my needs and my budget. so, the one problem I would have with non-motorized faders is if I were to grab a fader on track one, and it's position was at "6" but the actual track was at "-12" - as soon as I touch it, the fader immediately jumps to 6, blowing my ears out.
