STEMS PADS8

GOOD EVENING I OWN THE S8 AND, WITH PRO 4 THE STEMS ,CANNOT BE MANAGED BY THE PADS SINCE THEY ARE NOT ACTIVE. CAN IT BE SOLVED?THANKS

Because the faders already manage the volume of the stems. Newer controllers don’t have these faders, so they need to use the pads.

Can you explain what you mean by manage?

The S8 controls stems through the slider channels and the touch sensitive knobs adjacent to the screens. That was the design from the outset with stems back in 2014.

I saw on the stems presentation video that the user enables or disables the stems from the pads on the S4; since the 8 pads are identical I wonder why they can't be managed on the S8 by touch they don't enable or disable the stems
