The encoders will behave with an 'acceleration' feature, similar to that of the PC mouse - when you turn the encoder faster, the values will increase at a faster rate. This mean that you can turn the knob slowly for more precise adjustment, or turn quickly for coarse adjustment of parameters. | The encoders will behave with an 'acceleration' feature, similar to that of the PC mouse - when you turn the encoder faster, the values will increase at a faster rate.
