• KANAL-FADER: Controls the volume level of the individual channel.
• PFL-Taste (Pre-Fader Listen): Routes the channel's audio to the headphone output for monitoring before it reaches the main mix.

• CROSSFADER: Blends between Channel 1 and Channel 2. Moving it to the left emphasizes Channel 1, and to the right emphasizes Channel 2.
• CROSSFADER CURVE Control: Adjusts the response curve of the crossfader. A sharp curve is ideal for scratching, while a smooth curve is better for blending.
