All of Orbit's controls are MIDI-mappable, so they can control any MIDI-assignable command in your
software, giving you countless performance possibilities. Below are descriptions of the controls' general
behavior. To download pre-made control mappings for your software—and an editor to create your own
mappings—visit www.numark.com/orbit.
1.
Pads: These 16 multicolor pads control various software commands as assigned in the MIDI mapping.
Switch between the 4 banks (of 16 pads each) with the Pad Bank Selectors.
You can assign different colors to these pads, as well. For more information, see the Selecting Colors
for the Pads section of this manual.
Note: The pads labeled "a" and "b" in the above diagram are used while pairing Orbit to the
wireless USB receiver, if you ever need to re-establish the wireless connection. See the Pairing
Orbit to the Wireless USB Receiver section of this manual for more information.
2.
Pad Bank Selectors (1, 2, 3, 4): Use these buttons to switch between the 4 banks of Pads. The
current Pad Bank Selector will light up.
These buttons flash to indicate Orbit's battery is low. When this happens, connect Orbit's mini-USB port
to your computer with a mini-USB cable.
3.
Virtual Knob: This wheel adjusts various software features as assigned in the MIDI mapping. Switch
between the 4 functions with the Virtual Knob Selectors.
4.
Virtual Knob Selectors (K1, K2, K3, K4): Use these buttons to switch between the 4 functions of the
Virtual Knobs:
• K1, K2, and K3: The Virtual Knob acts as a 270° knob—ideal for mapping to knobs controlling
filters, EQs, effects parameters, etc.).
• K4: The Virtual Knob acts as a 360° encoder for scrolling through your music library or acting as
a virtual platter (so you can search through the current track, scratch, or pitch-bend).
5.
Shoulder Buttons: Hold down either or both of these buttons to activate Orbit's accelerometer, and
then tilt Orbit to affect it. The left shoulder button activates the accelerometer on the left-right axis. The
right shoulder button activates the accelerometer on the forward-back axis. The Pad LEDs will "stream"
in the directions it detects, and the streams will get faster as the tilt increases.
Tip: You can "latch" a shoulder button in the "on" position by double-pressing it. Return it to its
default "momentary" behavior by pressing it once.
6.
Hooks: Attach a lanyard to these hooks to hang Orbit from your neck.
7.
Strap Attachment: Unscrew the strap attachment and loop Orbit over an armband or belt, and then re-
tighten the strap attachment.
8.
Charging LED: This light will turn on when Orbit's internal lithium-ion battery is charging and turn off
when it is fully charged. See the Charging and Power Usage section of this manual for more
information about charging Orbit.
9.
Mini-USB Port: Use the mini-USB cable to connect this port to a USB port on your computer. This
connection charges Orbit's internal lithium-ion battery (whether Orbit is powered on or not). It also
allows you to use Orbit "wired" instead of wirelessly.
10.
Power Switch: Flip this switch to power Orbit on or off.
