storeMirabox
Some users may be confused about how the touchscreen works on the N4 Pro. This guide will walk you through the available touchscreen modes, setup methods, touch interactions, and how to disable touch functionality if needed.
Applicability
This feature is supported only on the N4 Pro.
Touchscreen Mode Overview
The N4 Pro touchscreen supports two modes:
- Knob Mode
- Touch Bar Mode
Knob Mode Setup
In Knob Mode, the touchscreen corresponds to the four physical knobs below it, displaying the assigned function (icon and title) for each knob.
How to Set It Up
A common mistake is dragging functions directly onto the knob, which will not work.
The correct setup method is:
- Drag a function from the knob area
- Drop it onto the corresponding touchscreen position
- If a function already exists, dragging a new one will automatically replace it
Touch Interaction in Knob Mode
You can customize swipe gestures, such as:
- Swipe left/right to switch pages
- Swipe left/right to switch scenes
Touch Bar Mode Setup
In Touch Bar Mode, the touchscreen works similarly to Apple's Touch Bar, allowing you to drag functions from the button area directly onto the touchscreen.
How to Set It Up
- Drag functions from the button area
- Drop them onto the touchscreen
- Arrange functions as needed for quick access
Touch Interaction in Touch Bar Mode
You can swipe left or right to view configured functions.

- Select Device
- Find Touch-related options
- Uncheck the touch options to disable the function
Conclusion
The N4 Pro offers two touchscreen modes for different workflows:
- Knob Mode for knob-linked visual controls
- Touch Bar Mode for more flexible touchscreen functions
You can also customize touch interactions or disable touch input entirely depending on your workflow.
