+ <li><kbd class="def">Track</kbd>: In Track-mode, the motorized faders display
+ and control a mixer-strip's signal level. The Pan/Param encoder modifies the
+ azimuth of the panner (hold <kbd>Shift</kbd> to control the width, if the
+ track's panner supports it). <kbd>Mute</kbd> and <kbd>Solo</kbd> affect the
+ respective mixer-strip.</li>
+ <li><kbd class="def">Edit Plugins</kbd>: When Edit Plug-ins mode is active, the
+ motorized faders will control the parameter settings of a given
+ plugin-insert.<br/>
+ Press the <kbd>Edit Plugins</kbd> button to view all available
+ plugin-inserts on a strip. If no plugins are available, <kbd>Edit
+ Plugins</kbd> will not engage and the FP8 automatically switches back to
+ Track-mode.<br/>
+ <strong>Select Plugin Mode</strong>:
+ Use the <kbd>Select</kbd> buttons under the scribble strip to pick a plugin
+ to edit.<br/>
+ The <kbd>Select</kbd> button color indicates the bypass/enable state of
+ the plugin (red: bypassed, green: enabled). Use <kbd>Shift</kbd> +
+ <kbd>Select</kbd> to toggle the bypass state.<br/>
+ Selecting a plugin enters <strong>Parameter Edit Mode</strong>: The faders
+ and the <kbd>Select</kbd> buttons will respectively control the parameters
+ and toggle controls of the selected plugin (once a plugin has been selected,
+ it stays in edit mode regardless of track selection). If there are more than
+ eight parameters, the Pan/Param encoder allows to scroll through available
+ control-parameters (hold <kbd>Shift</kbd> to bank by 8).<br/>
+ If the plugin has any presets, pressing the Pan/Param encoder switches to
+ the <strong>plugin-preset display</strong>: Plugin preset names are
+ displayed on the scribble-displays, the <kbd>Select</kbd> button below each
+ loads the preset. The "Pan/Param" encoder can be used to scroll through
+ presets if there are more than seven (right-most, 8th, slot is reserved to
+ unload/clear a loaded preset, hold <kbd>Shift</kbd> to bank by 7). The
+ <kbd>Select</kbd> button color is used to indicate the currently loaded
+ preset (if any) and blinks if a parameter has been modified since loading
+ the preset. Loading a preset or pressing the Pan/Param encoder again
+ switches back to the Plugin Parameter Edit Mode.<br/>
+ In Parameter Edit Mode, the "Open" (<kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Macro</kbd>)
+ allows to toggle the Plugin GUI visibility.<br/>
+ Press the <kbd>Edit Plugins</kbd> button again to return to the Select
+ Plugin Mode.
+ </li>
+ <li><kbd class="def">Sends</kbd>: In Sends mode, each of the faders is mapped
+ to the send-level of aux-sends of the selected track. If there are more than
+ eight sends on a given track, the Pan/Param encoder can scroll through them.
+ Send-mode follow the selection. If there are no sends on a given track, the
+ FP8 automatically switches back to Track-mode.</li>
+ <li><kbd class="def">Pan</kbd>: When Pan mode is active, the motorized faders
+ will display and control the panner's azimuth. The Pan/Param controls the
+ pan-width of the selected mixer-strip.</li>
+</ol>
+<p>
+ <kbd>Shift</kbd> + <kbd>Track</kbd> toggles timecode display on/off (middle
+ row of the scribble-strip). The timecode format can be configured in the
+ Control Surface Preference Dialog (Timecode, musical-time: bar/beat/tick).
